“We must always respect, remember and revere our military families,” says Shain.  Thanks to Yanks is a Milford based non-political organization whose goal is to never forget the events, heroes and victims of 9/11/2001 while also remembering the sacrifices that our military and their families deal with on a daily basis. The next event sponsored by Thanks to Yanks will be the annual Tribute Dinner, planned for 9/11/2014.

This magic show is provided for free through a generous donation from Charles River Bank, Milford Hannaford, and the Military Friends’ Foundation.
