Goshen Elementary School held a very special assembly to honor some of our Veterans from the Santaquin and Goshen area. The Veterans told the wars that they had fought in and Commander Ted Jones, shared a moving rememberance of our flag and the love we have for our country. At the end of the assembly students silently followed the Veterans outside for a respectful and solemn flag burning ceremony.
