Grove Lake today

The Grove Lake community will host a Memorial parade today at 1 p.m., as was outlined on page one of this week's newspaper.

The parade, led by the Glenwood American Legion, will march across County Road 39 and into Grove Lake Township cemetery. Everyone is then invited over to the park along the beach/shore of Grove Lake, where the Color Guard will have a gun salute, and Taps will be played in honor of the memory of area veterans who served our country so bravely during our nation's existence on earth.

I hope you've operated with more class than Vice President "Enjoy the long weekend" Harris has this weekend! It's important to know why we have a Memorial Day in the U.S.A. It's very unfortunate that she is holding that office. It would behoove her to read up on Memorial Day. Perhaps click over to the History channel and get educated: https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/memorial-day-history.

I digress.

Meanwhile, where I come from, our town of Brooten is proud to have donated over $1,000 to the Brooten American Legion Auxiliary Poppy Drive. This includes donations from businesses and individuals. What a tremendous effort! Read more about that in the June 3 issue of the Bonanza Valley Voice.

Enjoy that sunshine, today, Jaguar Country!
