COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that is believed to mainly spread from person-to-person contact. The Richland County Veterans Honor Bus is doing its part to sanitize, provide masks and shields, etc., and we ask you, our participants, to do the same and help us reduce the spread of COVID-19. You must follow all bus protocols and trip instructions while participating on an Honor Bus Trip, including instructions about wearing face coverings and social distancing, if mandatory at that time. Despite these measures, the risk of contracting COVID-19 could increase by participating on an Honor Bus Trip. By participating on an Honor Bus Trip, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ prev_background_color=”#ffffff” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#212a62″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”125px||||false|false” top_divider_style=”asymmetric” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”1.8em” link_font=”|800|||||||” link_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”|800|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font_size=”48px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n If you would like to donate, you can do so online or you can donate by check payable to \u201c<\/span>Richland County Joint Veterans Council, and write Honor Bus in the memo<\/strong>\u201c.\u00a0If you would like to volunteer in some way or offer other support for our cause or organization, please <\/span>contact us.<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”\/donate” button_text=”Donate” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#BC2226″ button_bg_color=”#FFFFFF” button_border_width=”0px” button_font=”|800||on|||||” button_on_hover=”off” custom_margin=”25%||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About the Trip Three days, two nights from Ohio to Washington D.C.
