Illinois Veteran's Home

June 1 is National Donut Day and to honor the day the Quincy Salvation Army is teaming up with Dunkin' Donuts in Quincy to celebrate Donut Day with a fundraiser.

This year is the 25th anniversary of the Flood of 1993 and as a result the Fourth of July fireworks will be returning to the Quincy Riverfront.

When the opportunity presents itself to thank a veteran, please do. There is no better opportunity to do that locally than going to the Veteran’s Day ceremony at the Illinois Veteran’s Home in Quincy. That ceremony will take place at 10am at Lippencott Hall this Saturday.

The Tri-States Lugnuts will be hosting their 18th Annual Endless Summer Car Show on Sunday, September 10 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Illinois Veteran’s Home.

Summer is slowly coming to an end, have you've done everything on this list?

The Quincy area is blessed to have so many accomplished musicians, not only now but for many years before. Some 69 years ago, Carl Landrum came up with the idea to form the Quincy Park Band which is still going strong as it nears seven decades of performing for the community.

Quincy offers a variety of activities for people of all ages. However, you must cross off everything on the following list in order to be called a true Quincyan. 

French Gerleman, an independent distributor of automation, electrical supply, datacom, power transmission and safety products, announced that their Quincy branch recently partnered with RAB Lighting to supply the Illinois Veterans Home with LED lighting to upgrade the lighting of their monuments and memorials.

It was the 11th hour of the 11th day on the 11th month when World War One finally came to an end.  It was called Armistice Day and still is by many although most people call it Veterans Day now.  Friday in honor of Veterans Day, the Illinois Veterans’ Home in Quincy will hold its Annual Veterans Day Program.

Mayor Kyle A. Moore will hold a Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday, November 1 at 5:30 to 6:30 pm at the Illinois Veterans Home’s Smith Hall in Quincy. Light refreshments will be served. All citizens of Quincy are invited and welcome to attend!
