Tuesday, November 13, 8:45 a.m., Orcas School Cafeteria
— from Orcas Island School District —
The Orcas Island School District is proud to invite all community members, most especially veterans, to its Tuesday, November 13 Veterans’ Day Assembly.
The event will start with a continental breakfast at 8:45 in the cafeteria. Please RSVP for the breakfast by leaving a message at 376-2286.
The assembly will begin at 9:30. All grades, K-12, will honor our veterans.
The Community Band will play patriotic music, elementary school students will provide quotes and sing songs highlighting the meaning of service, and middle/high school students will honor our veterans with a “White Table.” (The table is a place of honor, set in memory of fallen, missing, or imprisoned military service-members.)
We are honored to have Pat Ayers, a veteran nurse with the Navy, be a featured speaker at the event. All of the community is invited to this very special recognition of our military heroes. Again, please call if you’re interested in attending the breakfast, RSVP to 376-2286. We hope to see you on Tuesday, November 13.
