At long last -- it's a go! This took a lot of work and
General Rod Rudduck, a commissioner from Indiana County, guided us along. You
never know what can happen when you're networking with colleagues. Thanks to
the many businesses and orofessional service providers showing their support
for our veterans. Here's the news release:
Potter County’s military veterans may now sign up to
receive discounts on products and services from more than two dozen local
businesses participating in the first-ever Potter County Veterans Discount
Program.
To register, veterans should provide full name, mailing
address, contact information (telephone and email, if possible) to the county’s
Office of Veterans Affairs.
There are three ways to apply: 1.) send required
information by an email addressed to wworthington@pottercountypa.net; 2.) send
regular mail to Veterans Affairs, Gunzburger Building, 1 N. Main St.,
Coudersport PA 16915; or 3.) call 814-274-8290, extension 210, to schedule an
appointment or obtain additional information. Office hours are 8:30 to 4:30 on
Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Each veteran who registers for the program will receive a
membership card that must be shown at participating businesses to qualify for a
discount. Veterans will also receive a brochure that identifies participating
businesses by name and address, along with the particulars of their discount
offer.
Under the program, merchants and professional service
providers extend discounts – typically 10 percent or more – to Potter County
veterans. Certain restrictions may apply. Businesses wishing to sign up or
learn more about the program should call 814-274-8290, extension 207, or send
email to dwooster@pottercountypa.net.
The program is being administered by the Potter County
Veterans Service Committee. Members are Veterans Affairs Director Will
Worthington, Commissioner Paul Heimel, and Executive Secretary Dawn Wooster.
