It has been an awesome year so far, and crazy that we are halfway through the 3rd quarter already. Middle school can be an interesting time for a lot of kids, but seeing how the students at RVMS are working hard, collaborating and learning with their teachers and peers has been a rewarding experience. We have a lot of really cool things going on here, and I want to highlight a few of them this week.
The 100+ year old Redwood County VFW Post 2553 is continuing to celebrate the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States 125th Anniversary. The VFW is a nonprofit veterans service organization comprised of eligible veterans and military service members from the active, guard and reserve forces. The VFW roots go back to 1899 when veterans of the Spanish-American War (1898) and the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902) founded local organizations to secure rights and benefits for their service. Many arrived home wounded or sick. There was no medical care or veterans’ pension for them, and they were left to care for themselves. In their misery, some of these veterans banded together and formed organizations that would eventually band together and become known as the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States.
