This Weekend- Remember

[Rob Cunningham]

Please take time this weekend to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of our country.

[Greg Crawford]

So many of us have forgotten what Memorial Day was established for! Great reminder Rob.

Call a vet and thank them this weekend. It'll knock their socks off.

Once again I will be turning Freedom Pens for our troops this Memorial day, I hope that some of you will be joining me again this year making pens for our troops serving in the Middle East. At the end of the day you will be glad you donated your time for a good cause, each pen is a gift from home to someone who is a long way from their friends and family.

Here is your chance to serve our Patriots from the safety of your workshop. Please join me this year and make pens for our sons and daughters who have volunteered to protect us and those we love.

My high school turn-a-thon made about 200 pens on May 8th and I threw in another 20 more or so. It's a great cause and the students love doing it. I'm also committed for next year. So far we've made over 400 pens for troops.
I'll also be turning more this weekend.

Thank you Keith for all your efforts with the Freedom Pens Project, and thanks to all of you who have contributed.

Belinda,

The Freedom Pens Project is alive and well. We have lost a lot of pen turners the last couple of years but we still have a core group of dedicated people who won't quit until our troops are all back home.

I can't imagine a more fitting honor for those who have given their lives than for us to show our support for their comrades who are still standing watch.

95,799 Freedom Pens have been shipped as of today, this is a huge accomplishment for such a small group of American woodworkers.
