American Legion Ridge Igo Post 23 and Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 2066 thank all who participated and attended our Veterans Day 2009 activities, which culminated in a very successful parade, military ceremony and reception.

The parade, with a total of 45 entries, included five Nogales and Rio Rico school marching bands.

The ceremony at the Wall of Honor at City Hall, was attended by one of the largest audiences of recent years.

The reception at the Veterans of Foreign Wars post home was a huge success, attended by over 300 persons.

We thank Safeway, Food City and True Value-Robinsons for their contributions.

Special thanks to: Nogales High School ROTC, City of Nogales Recreation and Street departments, Nogales Fire and Police departments, and the 162nd fighter wing of the Arizona Air National Guard. Without your assistance and capable personnel our activity would not have been possible.

Thank you for all the support.
