Veterans Day 2019 Activities

Ed Perley - 11/17/2019

November 11, 2019

The Yutan VFW and American Legion held a Veterans Day ceremony at the Yutan High School.   The Yutan High School Band ,  the Yutan Junior High and High School Choir,  and the  First Grade class took part.
  
Our guest speaker was Dave Weber, a veteran sports announcer on WOWT.  He gave a heartfelt tribute to all of the veterans of past and present wars.  They he took up his guitar and sang a touching song about how a childhood freindship is reaffirmed on a battlefield.
 
 That afternoon the Yutan VFW and American Legion also held a ceremony at the Mead High School.  Their student choir participated.  This was a first for us.  It was greatly appreciated.
 
Breakfast was served for all of us at the High School cafeteria, and the Legion Auxiliary served lunch at the Yutan Country Club.
 
Our thanks for all who contributed to this very successful effort.
