American Legion Post 90 to Host Timpson Veterans Day Program

November 2, 2015 - Timpson ISD and American Legion Post 90 will present a Veterans Day Program Wednesday, November 11th at 10am in the Timpson High School gym.

All veterans are invited to attend this program. Veterans are asked to meet in the gym lobby between 9:30am - 9:45am so that TISD staff can get your information including name, rank and time of service. This information will be used when each veteran is individually introduced.

The program will include a video honoring veterans, music played by the THS Bear band, Master Sergeant Curt Penhallegon will sing, veterans' spotlights, flag presentation and folding of the flag with explanation of what each fold means. Students will also be an important part of the program. Veterans will be escorted into the program by young women from TISD's clubs and organizations.

A luncheon for veterans and their spouses will be served in the high school library provided by the THS staff as a way to thank veterans for their service. This is a meaningful program to honor our veterans and educate TISD students about the sacrifice our veterans made in service to our country.

Everyone who wants to honor veterans for their service and sacrifice to our country is invited to attend. Radio station KGAS in Carthage will broadcast this program live beginning at 10am.
