The U.P. Together With Veterans and the Chippewa County Veterans Service Office are coordinating an outreach event for Friday, September 26^th, 2025, beginning at 3:30, in conjunction with the Brimley VFW Fish Fry from 4 – 7pm.

The event is open to the public, and geared towards anyone who has ever served, anywhere, at any time, their families, and anyone providing care for a Veteran.

Veterans will receive a Free all you can eat fish fry platter. Please bring *proof of service.

Less than 50% of Veterans are connected to the benefits they’ve earned. Connection saves lives and improves quality of life.

We aim to build Veteran participation in healthcare and wellbeing activities by promoting connectedness and help seeking.

The Chippewa County Veteran Service Officer will be on hand to schedule appointments, answer questions and provide benefits information.

Iron Mountain VA Medical Center representatives will speak at 3:30 on VA highlights, current and local topics, and on healthcare and benefits, including *PACT Act and suicide prevention.

Representatives from other organizations will offer information on several topics.

If you are unable to attend and want to get connected with your earned benefits, contact the Chippewa County Veteran Service Officer, or dial 1-800-MICH-VET.

Join us Friday, September 26^th, 2025, anytime from 3:30 – 7pm at the Brimley VFW.
