Dear Ukrainian Community and our American Friends,
We wanted to share an exciting update, as August 24th has been officially proclaimed as Ukrainian Independence Day by the City of Virginia Beach! We want to thank the City of Virginia Beach and Mayor Robert M. "Bobby" Dyer for recognizing the Ukrainian Community of Hampton Roads, standing with the people of Ukraine, and joining us in the celebration of Ukrainian Independence.
The Ukrainian Community Center of Hampton Roads is excited to share the official text of the Proclamation, as well as part of Mayor Robert M. "Bobby" Dyer's speech during the Independence Day of Ukraine event. The local Ukrainian community became a vibrant and proactive part of the City of Virginia Beach and Hampton Roads, from establishing local small businesses to contributing to the cultural life of the region.
