Memorial Day weekend is a great time to go outdoors and enjoy time with our families. It’s also a time to honor the fallen heroes who defended our freedom by making the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.
Thank you to everyone who attended the Memorial Day Concert hosted by the Helotes Area Community Band and the 323rd Army Band, Fort Sam’s Own, at the Helotes Fire Station. During a special moment of recognition, we paid tribute to the Gold Star Families of Barry Lee Sanders, Nickolas Tanton, and Joshua Madigan. Thank you to the American Legion Post 309 for the Presentation of Colors and Helotes City Council Member Matt Merchant for serving as emcee of the afternoon’s event.
