Every Veteran's Day, we honor and recognize our local veterans, and this year was no exception. At our annual celebration event, we hosted distinguished guests from the Hastings Veterans Home, United Heroes League (a non-profit that keeps military kids engaged in sports), and the Employer support of the Guard and Reserve to show our appreciation. We also celebrated the arrival of our 2024 Freedom Award, which traveled from the Pentagon to its new home in our lobby. Organized by volunteers from our Allies of the Military associate resource group, this event was a display of gratitude for our military-connected associates and their families. #VeteransDay #HonoringOurHeroesBlue Cross associates photographed: Dana Erickson, CEO and President of Blue Cross; Chris Fanning, Senior Vice President Provider Relations and President of Commercial Markets; Brandi Ogdahl, Member Services Agent; Nathanial Skinner, Senior Sales and Account Management Consultant; Nelson Schmidt, Manager of Direct Channel Sales.

It was a great way to perk up the morning with our amazing associates!
