Sallisaw's Veterans Day ceremony will be held on the front lawn of Stanley Tubbs Memorial Library on Nov. 11, Judy Martens, Sallisaw Chamber of Commerce executive vice president, said.
The ceremony will start at 11 a.m. with the flag raising ceremony presented by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), and students from Eastside Elementary School leading The Pledge of Allegiance.
The ceremony will also consist of the singing of patriotic songs by members of the high school vocal music classes; comments from Sallisaw City Manager Bill Baker; a wreath ceremony; honor guard presentation: and prayers from VFW members. Ending the ceremony will be the playing of "Taps" by the high school band director, Brent Evans.
"We encourage everyone to come and be a part of this extremely meaningful ceremony to honor our past and present military personnel," Martens said.
