Veterans Honored at Assembly
Our veterans were honored at the annual Veterans Assembly on November 11. We were joined by a number of local service members. The attendees were greeting by waving flags and the Lonedell Band playing the Star Spangled Banner. The St. Clair Junior ROTC members performed the Flag Folding and POW/MIA Ceremonies. The Treble Makers performed Patriotic Salute by Linda Spevacek.
This year's Patriots Pen winners, Kiera B. and Josie D., shared their essays on the theme "My Pledge to Our Veterans". Master Sergeant Greg Cohen addressed the crowd, speaking of his service and all it has meant to him. Finally, the video presentation was made, honoring all branches of the service, and highlighting local service members and veterans. Over 830 veterans were honored at the event.
Thank you to all who have served and are serving and their families. We honor you for your dedication and sacrifice.
