ON 16 February 2011 the House of Representatives in Annapolis will hold its annual Fallen Hero’s Program. The House will go into session at 10AM with the Fallen Hero’s program to follow. I have been asked by our supporting Delegates to Please have a lot of Legion Caps in the Gallery that day. Pass the word and lets pack the House Gallery that morning. After all we keep asking them for support so let’s show support for their program. So pass the word along to everyone. Park at the stadium and catch the bus down to the state house. Once in the State House go to the 2nd floor to gain entrance to the gallery. Leave all knives, fingernail clippers and anything else that could be used as a weapon in your vehicle. If you have any of these items on you they will send you back to your vehicle with it. |
