Wildomar Elementary teamed up with Withrow Elementary and sang several patriotic songs, did a jump rope demonstration and then sang the themes from each of the branches of service (not an easy task). ☺

Earlier in the day, over in Murrieta's Town Square Park, the 5th graders from William Collier Elementary visited the Field of Honor in Murrieta.
The other local elementary school 5th graders also visited the site, and took the tour, earlier in the week.

| The students listen to the presentation by a Murrieta Rotary Club member as he tells them about the Local Heroes station. These flags represent military deaths since September 11th, 2001. |
They went through six stations as they learned about the flag, patriotism and the veterans that have maintained the liberty of our great nation.
The stations include: California Medal of Honor recipients; Chalk Art Sidewalk; Historic United States Flags; 50 State Flags; Local Heroes; and Veterans Memorial Obelisk/Walls.
