June 14th Quilts of Valor June 14th Bates County Courthouse Lawn

 Saturday June 14 (FLAG DAY) we will have a presentation on the Courthouse lawn by the memorials and will be awarding 

Quilts of Valor to several local veterans.  The Scouts will be there with a flag presentation, Pledge of Allegiance, the National Anthem,
and then the quilt presentation.   If you've ever wanted to see a Quilts of Valor presentation, this one is open to the public, and the
perfect opportunity to thank a veteran!  Time is 1:00pm.   Sponsored by Rocking Chair Quilts on the Butler Square.   If you know of
a veteran, you can nominate one through Rocking Chair Quilts.
