For those in Weld Country, and Greeley specifically, you are all invited to the Veterans Day ceremony at the Weld County Veterans Memorial on 11 November.
I am honored in many ways but none more so than to have Colonel Stan Cass call me a friend. While making lunch plans this week, he brought up Veterans Day and the ceremony planned at the Weld County Veterans Memorial at 16th St. and 35th Ave on 11 November starting at 11:00 a.m.

The day is going to be special as he has asked Pete Martinez to come to the event to play the song he wrote to honor our Veterans called "We Thank You" which should be one of the many highlights of the day.

There will also be music from the Brentwood Middle School band, which I have a found heart for since my daughter played trumpet in that very band years ago. The special speaker of the day will be MG Edwards. Also in attendance will be the Weld County Sheriff's office who will present the colors and the Honor Guard will be from the Keensburg American Legion. The ceremony will also call to attention the Colorado Patriot Guard who are the official motorcycle escort for Honor Flight Northern Colorado.

Greeley Mayor Tom Norton will also be there do deliver the proclamation and I'm guessing we'll also hear from Colonel Stan Cass as well who was the main force in getting the donations to build the Memorial itself.
