Veterans Day Program

Delano Middle School and High School will be Honoring All Who Served on Wednesday, November 11 at 9:30 a.m. in the Delano High School Tiger Activity Center.

The program will include an address from a World War II Veteran and POW, presentation of the winners of the Patriot Pen essay contest (a middle school writing contest on "When is the Right Time to Honor Our Military Heroes?") sponsored by VFW Post 1901 of Montrose, presentation of the Blue Ribbon School Award to Delano High School and music from the high school band and chorus.

The public is encouraged to attend. Bus transportation from the Delano American Legion Post 377 to Delano High School will be provided courtesy of Stahlke Transportation for veterans, their families and others to avoid parking problems at the high school. The bus will depart the Legion at 9:00a and return after the program.

Thank you for honoring these heroes in such a way that encourages our children not only to be proud of Veterans, but teaches them to show the proper respect for their service and sacrifices as well.
