memorial day wrap up
It is a little late to wrap up, but better late than never. this years veterans thank you pic-nic and BBQ was held at the Steele Vets Club with close to 300 attending. A display of over 100 kidder County veterans pictures were on display, with other military things being shown throughout the hall. A Major Hartter was the speaker who thalked about his recent time in Iraq where he was wounded. A very good speaker who moved the crowd. A young singer/songwriter came and sang very moving songs about veterans.. the color guard from both Dawson and Tappen presented the colors and looked great doing it. The food was super and the help was out of this world..Again they just showed up and went to work, I can’t thank them enough for all they do. Now I will start working on next years program and I am still looking for pictures of local vets still with us or passed on so I can frame them for next year..Again thanks to all who came ans a special thanks to all who helped..Skip Thomas Veteran Service Officer kidder County ND
