Friends, the National Weather Service is predicting that we will be on the edge of a Winter Storm Weather Advisory by Monday evening, so we are POSTPONING the showing of Honor Flight: One Final Mission. Future date will be announced here soon. So many of our beloved veterans are planning to attend, and if the weather is questionable, they may not want to venture out. We would hate for them to miss this opportunity, and we would certainly not want them to attempt to attend if the weather is bad. We also do not want to risk the safety of the generous people who plan to attend, our volunteers and the helpful staff at The Crossing. So please help us spread the word that we have decided to postpone, and we will let everyone know of the new date just as soon as we have it confirmed. Everyone stay safe and stay in touch…we hope to see you all at the film in the near future.
