If you are bringing children, please bring a special gift for your own children, and mark the child’s name on the gift so we can make sure it gets to him or her.

PCARS Thanks All Veterans
Thank You!!!!!
When your country needed you, you stood up
When others might have found an excuse, you soldiered on
When the job was not fun or glamorous, you did what needed done
You served in time of peril and strife, thanks to you our country still knows life
Happy Veteran’s Day!
