The Village of Niles seeks to pay tribute to local soldiers who recently returned from combat duty in Iraq or Afghanistan by offering them a ceremonial “Key to the Village.”
Residents are asked to contact the mayor’s office with information on returning veterans, so that arrangements may be made at the next scheduled Village Board meeting. This may be done by calling 847-588-8001 or writing a letter to “Returning Veteran” 1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, IL 60714, or by emailing the mayor's office.
“We want to acknowledge the dangerous mission our soldiers faced while serving their country in Iraq and Afghanistan and welcome them home,” says Mayor Andrew Przybylo.
