The Seadrift School along with the Seadrift Boy Scouts, the School Principal, the teachers, and the staff did a great job remembering our veterans on Veterans Day, November 11th.

A large group of veterans as well as relatives, school parents, and well-wishers were in attendance at the school gym that day.

It was truly a “Thanksgiving Moment” as hearts were touched as the students sang patriotic songs, read poems, and honored each branch of service with a flag presentation. The Seadrift Scouts did a beautiful presentation of honoring the different branches of service with their well-crafted posters.

Mary Hodges gave an oral tribute to veterans and invited guest Gilbert Ramon was the speaker. Gilbert was a Marine Gunnery Sergeant who recounted his many experiences while serving in the Marines.

Those present took away with them a greater appreciation for all who have served our country.

Port O’Connor area veterans were also honored with a program at Port O’Connor Elementary.
