About Us
The KVA A Local Veterans Resource
The Kingston Veterans Association (KVA) was established shortly after the end of World War Two. Its purpose was then and still is today, to pool the resources of all the local Veterans organizations for the common good of all.
Some of the shared responsibilities of our member organizations are the conduct of the Annual Veterans Day Ceremony, the Placing of Flags on the graves of Veterans within the City of Kingston, the conduct of the Annual Memorial Day Ceremony and the Memorial Day Parade, maintenance of the Mount Zion Cemetery, coordination for and conduct of six Memorial Ceremonies prior to Memorial Day, and providing speakers for local schools and civic organizations.
In addition, the KVA conducts Public Recognition Dinners to honor local businesses, civic organizations, and individuals for their support of veterans and their families. Annually we select a local Veteran as our Veteran of The Year to recognize them for their long service to veterans, their families, and to our community.
Many of our members participate in the Honor Guard of VFW Post 1386 which renders graveside honors to approximately 100 veterans a year as they are laid to rest. This is perhaps the most important mission we have.
Any member of one of our member organizations is automatically entitled to membership in the KVA. There are no Dues and we meet on the second Monday of the month at VFW Post 1386 on the By-Pass in Kingston at 7:00PM.
