Several have asked why we included a flag ceremony just prior to the keynote presentation at some of our conferences.  We felt it appropriate to remember and thank the families who have shared a spouse, children, grandchildren, or other family members in service to our country.  Please remember them. Whatever your political position, those remaining here, stationed away, and those who have completed their service, have given up much.  To those who have sacrificed everything, we also remember you.  Our thanks to the Color Guards from the American Legion Post 225 and VFW Post 4210, both of Forest Lake, who graciously and repeatedly agree to donate their time.


Thank you for your service!  November 11, 2010
