We have been invited to Set a Flag Line and Stand with Honor showing Respect for all that Served our Country to protect our Freedom’s and Rights of our Constitution.
On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 an armistice between Germany and the Allied nations came into effect. On November 11, 1919, Armistice Day was commemorated for the first time. In 1919, President Wilson proclaimed the day should be "filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory".
Veterans Day is a time for us to pay our respects to those who have served. For one day, we stand united in respect for you, our veterans.
We will set the Flag line for the ceremony and render appropriate Honors during the presentation of Colors and Taps.
Refreshments will be available following the ceremony!
Please park in the Church parking lot adjacent to the VFW.
Stage 1115
