Day 158- Honor Flight Supplies and Pranksters
Our school district raised quite a bit of money this year to send an entire group of WWII veterans on an honor flight. Never heard of honor flights before? I hadn't before this year either. Basically, the goal of the honor flight program is to send veterans to their memorials in Washington, D.C. in order to honor the service they gave to our country and the sacrifices they made along the way. It's good stuff. Our social studies department and librarian held a fundraiser this year for staff and students to donate to this great cause. It was a great success! They raised enough money to send a whole bunch of vets on their honor flight, and our librarian and one of the teachers get to go with them tomorrow. They sent out an e-mail asking for all kinds of supplies they would need to take with them, and I happily obliged with today's donation.
