It's Memorial Day Weekend! 

That means parades, parties, picnics, barbecues, music, canoe races, and the unofficial start of summer.

There's so much to do this weekend, and a great weather forecast, so ENJOY!

But, take a moment amid the fun and festivities to remember those for whom this day has been set aside.

Our heartfelt thanks to all who've served, and especially those who sacrificed life and limb for our benefit.

And to everyone....
Happy Memorial Day!  

We'll see you next Thursday.
