East County resident Corinne North-Fuller came to support female veterans both personally and professionally at the Warriors at the Ranch fundraiser Aug. 25, at Gold Coast Eagle Distributing.

North-Fuller, a U.S. Army veteran, started in December as the first veterans service office for Sarasota County Veterans Services. 

Guests of the fundraiser enjoyed live music, food and drinks, auctions and raffles and socializing. Proceeds benefitted the veterans commission’s upcoming Female Veterans Retreat.
