Veterans Day 2023

Veterans Day 2023

Veterans Day, an amazing opportunity to honor military members who served to protect our freedoms and our rights. This year, 42 total veterans who are part of team Heaven Hill opted in to receive recognition. THANK YOU for all you have sacrificed and done for not only us, but for the United States of America as well.

Technical Skills Trainer Eileen Kristensen spearheaded a beautiful project to ensure these veterans were honored in a meaningful way. Veterans were either personally thanked and gifted a bourbon barrel stave flight with a military branch challenge coin in the middle and a personalized bottle of Evan Williams 1783 American Hero edition at their assigned work location or mailed a special gift to their remote work location.

VGA Hosts Flag Ceremony at Bernheim Distillery

 

To celebrate Veterans Day this year, Heaven Hill and the Veterans Golf Association (VGA) also held a special flag ceremony. The celebration took place at Bernheim Distillery in Louisville, KY, on Wednesday, Nov. 8th. During the event, Heaven Hill announced provision of a one-year VGA membership for all veterans interested in joining the organization. The flag ceremony also served as a symbol of VGA’s gratitude for Elijah Craig’s support of their mission through golf and the meaningful partnership the VGA and Heaven Hill Brands have built.
