​YORK – The York County Courthouse is lighted in green this week, as part of Operation Green Light for Veterans.

​YORK – With the assistance of the Elks National Foundation Freedom Grant, the York Elks Lodge #1024 donated $1,000 worth of medical supplies to the York County Veterans office.
Included among the items were knee scooters, wheelchair seat pads, shower chairs and more.
Elks members said, “This contribution helps ensure our local veterans receive the care and support they deserve. Thank you to our volunteers for making this possible and to our veterans for their service to our great nation.”
Members delivered the items to the office, which is located at the courthouse. Accepting the items was York County Veterans Services Officer Nick Wollenburg.

​YORK -- The decision has been made to move today's Memorial Day service, otherwise planned for Greenwood Cemetery, to the National Guard Armory in York. York Veterans Service Officer Nick Wollenburg said due to the threat of rain, the services will be held inside.
Wollenburg also noted the large flags will stay out at the cemetery until Wednesday (rather than be picked up tonight). The time for picking them up has not yet been decided -- that will be announced later.
