The Veterans Committee has made a major decision to change our name and status to Holiday City Berkeley Veterans and Friends, which was in existence in HCB since 2012.  This change was made after much discussion because we want to be able to raise money to honor, assist and advocate for Veterans in our community.  We would like to thank our Board of Directors for agreeing to our decision and supporting our efforts.
