Service of Remembrance and Hope

The McCamey Ministerial Alliance offered a service of remembrance and hope following the picnic.  It was great to see so many come out to honor the memory of those whose lives were taken on September 11, 2001.  It was also a time to show our respect for this country and those whose efforts continue keep us free.

Girl Scout Troop 127 (led by Melanie Spratt-Anderson) presented the colors and led the community in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

The community members who serve in public safety area were introduced and the community showed its appreciation of these folks: McCamey firefighters, E.M.S. and Upton County Sheriff's Department.

Other participants in tonight's observance were: Jennifer Aguilar, Judge Bill Eyler, Cytha Peters,The Sacred Heart Catholic Church Children's Choir, Pastor Kathryne Snodgrass (who led the singing), Pastor David Snodgrass, and Dr. Charles Alkula.

Thanks also to the McCamey High School cheerleaders for their help in passing out the bulletins to the community.
