Blood Drive: 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM

To be held in the
Multi-Purpose Building & Parking Lot

There will be a display of military vehicles and equipment in the parking lot, and militaria displays and veterans with their personal mementos, photos, uniforms and souvenirs on display in the Multi-Purpose building.  They will be sharing their experiences and answering questions about their time in the service.

This will be a time when we all can come and meet our veterans, and show our appreciation to them for their service and sacrifices to protect the freedoms we all enjoy each day.  Without them, we all would be living a different life today.  Let's have a big crowd out to say, "Thank You"!

Veterans who would like to participate may contact Bob English at 903-963-7444 or 903-216-7939 for information.  If you want to be a participant in this event, please contact me by October 15th.
