Jennifer's remarks and thanks

Good Morning and welcome to Lily Lake’s tribute to our Country’s 232th Birthday. What better way to celebrate it than with a Kid’s Parade and Games?

Our thoughts and prayers are with the brave men and women of our Armed Services as we celebrate the freedom they are fighting and dying for.

I would like to thank all of you for being here today with a special thanks to those who have made this event possible:

I know I have missed acknowledging someone important, and I apologize for it now. Thanks to you all for being here!
