When the residents at Lake Minnetonka Shores retirement community gathered to commemorate Memorial Day on the traditional May 30th date, Lake Minnetonka DAR chapter members were on hand to assist.
Early in the day they placed hundreds of American flags along the walkways to the outdoors program. Other members escorted residents in wheelchairs from their rooms to shady spots under tents. After the patriotic program of music and speeches, DAR members helped with serving picnic lunches to those unable to stand in line.
The volunteer coordinator praised them in her email message, “All went so smoothly because we had so many volunteers on deck. You have a great organization. Please let them know how thankful we were today for their help.”
