Q&A

What could be a better way to recognize Veteran's Day and those who defend our nation than providing them with one night's relaxing stay at your property — on the house!

Read below to find out how to make a difference this Veteran's Day, November 11th, 2018!

By Nancy Renner

he B&Bs for Vets program has been running for over eleven years, and over

the past eleven years, thousands of B&B’s

and inns across the United States and Canada

have offered active and retired veterans free

lodging for one night on or around Veteran’s Day.

This program was started by Kathleen Panek,

a West Virginia Innkeeper in 2008, and was

appropriately named B&Bs for Vets. Once again

this year, the Association of Independent

Hospitality Professionals (AIHP) will manage,

coordinate and publicize the B&Bs for Vets

program to honor our hard-working military.

The innkeepers participating in the 2018 B&Bs

for Vets program will offer a minimum of one

room for one night, totally free.
