This will be the second year that the VA CBOC has participated in the event, which also serves as a way to donate much needed health items to veterans who need them. Maureen Campbell with the CBOC tells KNIA/KRLS News the walk is to show thanks to veterans while also getting them things they need. The walk will take place on Wednesday from 10am – noon in the Knoxville VA CBOC parking lot, with everyone welcome to attend.
