Proudly Serving the Hulet and Devils Tower Community
American Legion Crook County Post #45 and VFW Devils Tower Post #3411 invite the public to a ceremony and gathering to commemorate Veterans’ Day.
A program of respect and honor for veterans will take place at 11 a.m. on November 11 at the war memorial in Sundance.
This will be followed by a pot luck lunch, to which the public is also welcome. Attendees are encouraged to bring a salad or dessert to share.
The lunch will feature a Prisoner of War/Missing in Action table (otherwise known as a Missing Man Table). This table holds symbolic items, such as a yellow ribbon for continued uncertainty, a slice of lemon to represent their bitter fate, and a lighted candle to represent hope for their return.
Post #45 Commander Welchie Patterson will provide a presentation explaining the meaning of the table during the lunch.
Post #45 also invites you to a family barn dance on November 15 at the Cowboy Church outside Sundance (exit 199).
The event will be held from 7 to 11 p.m. and will feature the music of the State Line Ramblers.
Hot dogs, chips and water will be available. Kids under the age of 16 can enter free; for 16 and over, the entry fee is $15.
