Veteran Discount Guide
Your Guide to Discounts, Services, and So Much More!
If you ARE, KNOW or LOVE someone CURRENTLY SERVING or who HAS SERVED our country, WELCOME to the VDG FAMILY of local providers who are here to help you SAVE MONEY, FIND RESOURCES, and FIND YOUR PEOPLE.
On the pages of the VDG you’ll find 100+ local businesses who are champions of the mission to give back to those who gave so much to defend and protect our freedoms.
These companies and organizations generously offer discounts, services, programs or events for military and veterans, contribute to veteran-focused organizations, or are proudly veteran-owned!
Veteran Owned
We’re veteran-owned by local long-time lake resident Jeff Karr, and proud to offer veteran-owned businesses a 10% discount on our services.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!
Our Story
Long time Lake Ozark resident and Navy veteran Jeff Karr noticed something missing in his community: How to find veteran-owned businesses and places which support those who have served. These need to be on our veterans’ (and everyone’s) radar. After mustering forces with his wife and his friends, they’re aiming to make that happen.
The Veteran Discount Guide is your ultimate resource for local discounts, essential services, and events & programs for veterans, active-duty military, and their families, highlighting our local veteran-owned businesses!
You don’t need to be a veteran to appreciate the VDG.
By all of us supporting local veteran-owned and veteran-friendly businesses, we can ensure that their discounts, programs, benefits, and services can continue to be offered to our loved ones for years to come. Let’s promote and shop at those businesses which take care of the people who sacrificed so much to protect us all.
