by Tracy McCue, Sumner Newscow — Featured Speaker Jim Valentine said it best. The flag is red, white and blue and these colors don’t run.
The annual Veteran’s Day Program was held at the Wellington High School auditorium, and few would argue this was the best one yet.
A full house was there to view the 1 hour and 14 minute program. Americans young and old joined together for a celebration of the Veteran, who has preserved the freedom of this great country.
No words can bring justice to the program. So we will feature pictures. For the full photo gallery click here.
Veteran’s from all wars and those who serve all military branches were honored.
Students from all four elementary schools sang “On Veteran’s Day.”
Commander Jim Lockhart emceed the ceremony.
Cindy Tracy directs one of the most popular segments of the Veteran’s Day Program with Lee Greenwood song.
