What a beautiful Saturday morning at the Restoration Ranch. Mike Jackson and I set up the awning with flags and banners representing the Austin Patriot Guard. The event started at 11:00am with the playing of our National Anthem while 3 horse riders presented the US flag, State flag and the Restoration Ranch flag.

We had a good crowd of people and handed out over 100 Patriot Guard pamphlets. We may be gaining a new member as well. Many of the veterans that showed up thanked us for our service. We had some that even shared some stories of experiences they had with the Patriot Guard in supporting their loved ones. They were all very positive and grateful that we supported them.

There were many venders and good food throughout the day. They had door prizes at the end of the day.
We started taking everything down at 3:50pm and packed up to depart.

Thanks to Mike Jackson for all his help.

Thanks to Restoration Ranch for inviting us to this event.
