The students and staff had a large
group picture taken in September. It hangs on the wall near the
junior high end of the building. The location is considered the
district's collection of honored items.

His wife Tamara, Chaplain Barry Wright, son Ethan, daughter Abigail
and brother-in-law Gordon Lanning attended the special program at
West Lincoln-Broadwell on Wednesday afternoon. |
|
|
The chaplain brought the "Holy
Man" stick he was given while in Iraq. A woven cross of cord
surrounds a piece of shrapnel caused by a bomb that created memories
of his stay in Iraq.
|
The choir sang the national anthem
during the program. Trey Schilling
opened the program by leading the school and visitors in the Pledge
of Allegiance. |
|
Superintendent Climer introduced the
chaplain
and explained that the student council would present items to
recognize the occasion and thank Wright for his service and
for his effort to fly the district's flag over Iraq.
|
At the presentation,
Wright received a hug from
his nephew Payton Lanning, a WLB student and student council
member.
|
|
Wright presented to Climer a homemade
certificate that recognizes the importance of the
flag and states the date and location of its flying over Iraq.
