Thank You to Our Veterans from MSW Interactive Designs
Originally the concept of the holiday included parades and public meetings, with a brief suspension of business beginning at 11 am. Today, many of these traditions still take place and many businesses shut down for the day.
Thank You to Our Veterans!
The team here at MSW Interactive Designs, would like to thank all of our veterans for everything you've done for our country! A special thanks goes out to one of our owners, Mike Waggett!
