On August 23rd starting at 6:15am…I (Rod Carpenter) will begin the first of 4 laps around the lake for Randy Dammeyer. Lap 2 will start at aprox 8:15 for Adam Long, Lap 3 at aprox 10:15 for Lee Olding and Lap 4 for Isaac Randall. Start and finish is at the Red Tent on Lakeshore Drive here in Celina.

Whenever I have done these and know others that have carried flags, it is always an emotional day for the family. The common theme is not only they miss their loved one but also afraid their loved one will be forgotten. Thus, coming down to Lakeshore and supporting these families is so important. Your presence is truly appreciated. You can do this whether you know the families or not.

When I finish a lap it is simply getting off the bike, pulling the flag and picture out of the backpack and presenting to the family member. I say a few words to them and a quick prayer. I am not around very long then off again so you don’t have to allocate a lot of time to support them.

Celina and the area is tremendous and hope you all can make time to support a family or all of them.

Again please share and get the word out. Thanks!
