CHAPIN, S.C. — Chapin will honor its veterans on the eve of Veterans Day with a Salute to Veterans program at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10. The ceremony will be held at 101 East Boundary St., the home of Mt. Horeb Lutheran Church.
American Legion Post 193 of Chapin is presenting the evening, and the church is opening it to the whole community as a tribute to everyone who has served in uniform.
The featured speaker for the evening is Thomas Griffin, the Chapin police chief. Naval JROTC cadets from Chapin High will act as honor guard, and singers from the Chapin High School Chorus plan a special tribute. Musicians from the 282D Army Band at Fort Jackson will round out the program with patriotic music.
Post 193 started out with 19 veterans under a temporary charter in 1998. After years of fundraising, the post held a ribbon cutting on July 18, 2026, for its first permanent home at 230 Amicks Ferry Road. Its Legion family, counting the Auxiliary and Sons of The American Legion, now numbers 529 members.
