In 2009, the Rotary Club held its annual Veteran's Day program at Strongbow's to honor our nation's veterans and the great service they performed for our country. The event featured guest speaker Quentin Smith and music from the Valparaiso High School band. Smith (1919–2013) was an American airman who served as a B-25 bombardier with the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II.
