Volusia County Shines a Green Light for Veterans

Posted On: November 4, 2025

Volusia County has a long and proud history of serving veterans, a legacy that continues to this day as the County shows its support for veterans by participating in Operation Green Light for Veterans, an initiative sponsored by the National Association of Counties and the?National Association of County Veterans Service Officers.

From Nov. 4 to 11, Volusia County will illuminate the Ocean Center, Historic Courthouse, and Thomas C. Kelly Administration Center with green lights to let veterans know they are seen, appreciated, and supported.

“This is a time to salute and honor the service and sacrifices of our men and women in uniform,” said Veterans Services Director Scott Olson. “We encourage residents and businesses to shine a green light for our veterans too, and we urge veterans to schedule an appointment with a veterans services officer so we can help them receive all the benefits to which they are entitled.”

Volusia County’s veterans services officers help former and current members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their dependents prepare claims for benefits at offices in DeLand, New Smyrna Beach, Daytona Beach, and Deltona. For more information, call 386-740-5102 or visit volusia.org/veterans.
