San Carlos Elms Honors Veterans

Happy Veterans Day from all of us here at San Carlos Elms.
Today we honored our Resident Veterans with a Ceremony.
San Carlos Boy Scout Troop 321 help in this ceremony, posting the flags, singing patriotic songs and a bugle player.
Each Resident was given either a flag pin with a red, white and blue ribbon (veterans) or a poppy with a ribbon (spouses) to thank them for their service.
The Residents enjoyed Troop 321's visit today.

Boy Scout Troop 321 did a wonderful job and all the Residents appreciated them participating in today's ceremony.

Betty (in red), "Everyone did a great job. And, like last year all the memories came like a flood,causing a flood of tears - both of sadness & joy. Thank you for all your kind & heartfelt work."

Gordon was proud to stand for the Air Force during the Armed Forces Medley song.

One of the young Scouts performed "Taps" for our Residents.

Each Resident enjoyed this service with tears of happiness, sadness or hope.
Thank you Troop 321 we look forward to having you back in our community!
Thank you to all the parents who drove the troop today!
