Croatian President Kolinda Grabar Kitaroviu0107 was in the Twin Cities to meet with members of the Minnesota National Guard to celebrate the 20th anniversary of a joint military relationship between Croatia and the Minnesota National Guard.
After a day of official functions, Kitaroviu0107 and other high-ranking Croatian officials were interested in being shown a program that does a great job of connecting troops with the community.
The program that Kitaroviu0107 was shown was Serving Our Troops, an annual event that holds 3,000 to 4,000 people at the Xcel Energy Center.
