The Greenhorn Mountain Veterans Association was started in 1947 by World War II veterans, seeking to establish a community veterans organization whose stated purpose is to “promote social activities, community welfare and a love for America”.  As an organization our priorities are

1. Provide service to the communities of the Greenhorn Mountains through social activities (Rodeos, Dinners, 4-H clubs, church activities, school special events, weddings, funerals, celebrations).
2. Support and serve our local veterans.
3. Promote activities that would inspire and encourage a love for America and the Western Culture
4. Provide emergency service in any way needed for our community including providing emergency shelter for people and animals in a crisis, service the needs of our local fire and police departments, and provide emergency landing area for helicopters used to transport patients.
