About the Mission:
This will be a short, Law Enforcement escorted ride with Fire Trucks and possibly "Ride Of Pride" truck(s) along with the many riders to the school with a Grand Entrance through the parking lots, ending at the main entrance lined by students and facalty waving American flags to honor our veterans. Following the Grand Entrance, the students will be putting on an excellent Patriot Program in the auditorium! Refreshments served immediately after the program! Along with the Patriot Guard Riders, there will be some members from the Buffalo Soldiers, AMVET Riders, Ain't Rite Riders and more riding in the escort!!
Last year, the sidewalk was lined with approx. 170 students and staff waving American flags. Since everyone at the school was so excited from last year, they have invited us back and will be having the entire school greet us on the sidewalks and they are expecting approx. 800 students and staff this year!!
It is such an honor to be invited back again this year!! This event will bring some tear drops to you eyes with the students showing their honor, respect and Thank You to our veterans. I wish that ALL schools would make sure to teach Patriotism to all of our young children and future leaders!!!
