“Salute to Our Troops” event this weekend

[rangergreg281]

I just received this today from the Governor's office (meaning that this post is now official public record and can never be deleted ~grin~ ). Thought I'd pass it along for those of you that were not aware.


Invitation from the North Carolina Bankers Association
The “Salute to Our Troops” organization and the North Carolina Bankers Association Foundation request your presence at the largest Military Appreciation event of its type ever held in North Carolina. It is entitled “Salute to Our Troops” and is focused on the military and their families based in North Carolina. The salute begins at 10:00 am on Saturday, April 26, on Fayetteville Street in downtown Raleigh with a flyover of four F-15E Strike Eagle jets followed by a full military parade complete with troops marching, bands playing, floats and probably the largest mobile collection of modern military equipment compiled in more than fifty years. All branches of the military will participate. Following the parade, there will be static displays of the parade equipment plus many more items that the military uses in the performance of their jobs. Several NASCAR show cars will also be on display. The North Carolina Pork Council will be providing samples of cooked pork tenderloin to the public at no charge. We want to make sure that there are as many people as possible showing appreciation. Your help and support is most appreciated. The link below contains a flyer and we ask that you make copies and distribute to as many people as possible. http://www.ncba.com/uploads/File/TroopsFlyer.pdf
