 Warrior Walk Lakeland July 31, 2010
Dear Friends,
I know everyone is SO busy and this event is months away, but please take a moment to look at this website
for me. (below) I am organizing a WARRIOR WALK in Lakeland, FL to be held on St. July 31st 2010 beginning at 9am. There
will be a short ceremony, and then participants will walk in honor of a fallen hero, who has made the ultimate sacrifice in
either Operation Iraqi Freedom, or Operation Enduring Freedom.
I ask that you pass along this website, and
sign up to walk if you are able. If you cannot walk, or are handicapped please join us anyways. You can sit and cheer from
the sidelines! We also need some sponsors for event related items, if you or anyone you know are willing.
I
know the thought of a fallen soldier is definitely not a happy thought, but I would like to bring to light and honor those
men and women who are no longer with us, all in the name of FREEDOM that you and I enjoy each and every day. I am so
very grateful for all of our military personnel and thank God there are people who are willing to stand in harm's way
and fight the people who try and do our country harm. I am so grateful and PROUD to be an American!! Thank you to all our
troops and Veterans, past and present. Hope you can join us.....

Thank you for passing along the info in advance.
Melissa SanchezOnly two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:1. Jesus Christ
& 2. The American Soldier......One
died for your Soul, the other for your Freedom. Support Our Troops! Hooah!

after christmas on this type of stuff please let me know. I hope to send out another large "Female Pedicure" Care

A Veteran - whether Active Duty, National Guard, or Reserve, is someone who at
some point in their lives, wrote a blank check made payable to "The People of the United States of America" for
an amount of "up to and including my life".
The Polk County Veterans Council endeavors to unite all of Polk County's Veterans Organizations to better serve the Men and Women whom have served our country so valiantly. Polk County, Florida. Thank you for your service.
