MENNO LEGION PLANNING MEMORIAL DAY PROGRAM
The Menno community will once again reflect on what sacrifice means while remembering men and women who have served in the Armed Forces at a Memorial Day program Monday morning, May 30 at the city’s cemetery. The service is sponsored by the Rames-Bender Post 152 of the American Legion and will begin at 10:30 a.m.
Casey Hansen, state commander of the Sons of the American Legion, will offer the address and music will be provided by the Menno High School band, and also Tom Ulmer and Dale Weiss. There will also be an airplane flyover, remarks and a prayer by Post 152 Commander Robert Rennolet and a reading of the names of those from Menno who have served.
A lunch sponsored by the Menno High School band will be served in the city/school auditorium following the service. In the event of poor weather, the Memorial Day program will be moved to the school’s gym.
There will not be a Memorial Day program in Freeman this year.
