circle drive, and we will be dedicating the marker to be installed in honor of The
Possum Trot School at the corner of Dove Rd. and Pearson Ln. It will be held at
the school since there is no parking at this location and in celebration of
Westlake Academy's 10 year anniversary.
c) Decoration Day Program — Decoration Day will be held on Monday, May 27, 6:00
— 7:30PM at the Westlake Academy Gym and Commons Area. President Schultz
excitedly announced our keynote speaker, Brian Fleming, wounded Purple Heart
recipient from the war in Afghanistan and noted speaker and author. He has
agreed to speak at Decoration Day for $250 when he normally charges $5000.
The Patriot Guard and the Liberty Bell have also been invited. It will be held at
WA this year only, as Mr. Fleming needs power for his power point presentation.
We hope to have Andy Sedino do the catering.
dj Board Member Recruitment— We are hopeful that Debra Heath might consider
joining the WHPS Board.
