Operation Support Our Troops (OSOT) in Lisle, IL, supports deployed U.S. troops, veterans and Gold Star families. Today, these Fort Payne Daughters sorted, packed and stuffed stockings with all kinds of needed (and fun!) goodies. OSOT relies on volunteers to donate items and fill these stocking morale-boosters. Thank you, Fort Payne, for your efforts, and thank you, troops, for your service!

A glorious day to celebrate the anniversary of the signing of the Constitution with Carillonneur Tim Sleep and the Daughters of Fort Payne.
At 4 pm Sept.17, 1787, 39 delegates at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia signed the United States Constitution. As the bells rang out then across the city in celebration, they do so now in grateful recognition of this cornerstone of our Democracy.

Bells will be ringing across Naperville today in honor of Constititution Week. This essential document to our democracy first was signed at 4 pm Sept. 17, 1787.

At 2 am, these daughters gathered at Midway to shepherd 113 veterans through the airport and off to Washington, D.C., to see the Vietnam and Korean memorials. Once through security, they stopped for coffee, donuts and the singing of the national anthem. Upon their return, these 100 Vietnam vets and three Korean vets will receive a rousing welcome from a grateful community, the kind of reception they did not receive when they came home from war.
Thank you, Wrenne and Bonnie, for your dedication to these valiant veterans.

Chaplain Lisa toured a fascinating America 250 display at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley last week. Artifacts from the Revolution and the Civil War were featured. The last picture is a Binn's Declaration of Independence, an engraving created by Philadelphia publisher John Binns in 1819 with facsimile signatures, key founders' portraits and the seals of the original 13 states. Thank you, Lisa!
