Cub Scout Pack 14 performed a flag raising ceremony at the Golden West Visitor Center in honor of Veterans Day, November 11th. The short service was held at 11:50 AM, just over 90 years after the first commemoration of the Great War Armistice was proclaimed by President Wilson, in 1919. About 50 residents and school children took time to thank veterans for their service, sing the Star Spangled Banner (led by Jeanette Kurth), mingle with neighbors, and enjoy a glorious sunny day. |
