* Heroes Parade is September 11th in Town Square in Southlake starting
at 6pm. There will be many wounded Service Members there who have flown in
from across the country to attend. The Southlake Students turned their own
Homecoming Parade into a Heroes Parade on their own. Dave Hall with his
Liberty Bell will be there along with Bag Pipes playing in the parade from the
Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base in Ft. Worth.
* Friday there will be a lot going on. Central Market we will have 2
Apache Helicopters on Static Display along with photos of the war on terror
displayed outside along with entertainment and food. Assemblies at the 2 High
Schools with Veteran speakers , Lt. General from Southlake and San Antonio,
Medal Of Honor Recipient , folding of the flag and 3 High School Students

* Friday night, the Southlake Football team will be wearing a sticker
on their helmets to honor our and play football for our Military. They will
also run out on the field with flags in their hands. The School is making
Tshirts to sell and planning on the entire student body wearing these
patriotic T-shirts for the entire game. We will have a 20 min program before the
game about our heroes who are at the game also. There will be an Apache
Helicopter on Static Display at the Stadium also along with a huge tail gate part
before hand. This will possibly be covered by FOX as it is like a Friday
Night Lights Football Game. The entire city of Southlake is behind all efforts.
* Saturday will start the bike ride where we will have many wounded
riding in the rally. Started off with an Apache Helicopter and then 2 on
Static Display. Tons of food. Businesses will have adopted port-a potties and
decorated them for a bike ride. Bone Daddys and Razoos are also sponsors and
will have their girls out waiving our teams on to the finish line.
* That night will be the Gary Sinise Concert and we hope to have the
entire stadium sold out . Gary plays the base guitar and the band will rock
the stadium with all kinds of music.
Please pass the word and the websites.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't
pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected,
and handed on for them to do the same. Let us be sure that those who come
after will say of us in our time, that in our time we did everything that could
be done. We finished the race; we kept them free; we kept the faith.
