The program also included a keynote address by local Marine Corps veteran Tyler Evans, door prizes, “roll call,” and presentation of a gift to the local American Legion Post. Veterans also received cards and bookmarks made by students, who also made special placemats for the breakfast. It was an amazing morning, and an honor to celebrate the service of our veterans!
