Nov 22 Blue Light Ceremony

The 4th Annual Blue Light Ceremony was held Saturday November 22, 2008. The thin blue line was glowing brilliant blue for which we are grateful. We had a nice turn out as well as good press regarding the ceremony and its purpose. We were blessed to have all of our speakers turn out for a crisp cool evening to participate and offer time as well as kind and generous words.
