Members & Guests: Please join Jonesboro Elks #498 for our 2nd Annual Fallen Soldiers Boot Memorial. This Boot Memorial was started in memory of SSG Paul F. Brooks and in honor of all that paid the ultimate sacrifice. It will be at the Craighead County Courthouse from 10am to 2pm. Mayor Copenhaver and his trio will be singing the National Anthem. We will be representing 153 fallen sing 9/11 in Central Arkansas. We will also have 22 boots to represent the average age of veterans / soldiers we lose due to suicide. We will have representatives from We Are 22. This group works with veterans that are in crisis or fear they may take their own life. WA22 works with local Police to make sure the call gets to them so the veteran feels at ease to speak about any issues they may be having. the Goal is To Intervene/Prevent. In addition, the traveling boot memorial will be on display in the Elks Lodge Hall from May 15th through 21st for anyone who would like to view what the program is about.
