FREE Veterans Day Offers & Discounts for Veterans and Active Military in St. Augustine

We have a lot of veterans, active military and their families in our community, and I want to extend a huge, heartfelt thank you to all of them for their service, their constant sacrifices and their desire to keep all of us safe.

We often forget that for every active member of the military or veteran, there is a family behind them sacrificing so much as well. 

We are fortunate to have the American Legion Alton Green Memorial Post 194 here in West Augustine. You can learn more about how to join the American Legion, the American Legion Auxiliary, the Sons of the American Legion and the American Legion Riders here.


We have done our best to verify all of the below Veterans Day Offers, but we encourage you to call your local chain restaurant to verify that they are participating.
