The council presented a citation to the Youth On Guard Memorial Foundation for a continuous community reenactment of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Floral Haven Memorial Gardens.
Co-executive directors Ashley Johnson and Bailey Lunsford described the group's reenactment, training program (about five months and more than 140 hours of training for sentinels) and mission to "remember, honor, and heal" for veterans and Gold Star families who cannot travel to Arlington National Cemetery. Mayor Deborah Wimpie read a proclamation commending the foundation and noted a certificate of special senate recognition from Senator Jim Lankford.
The council thanked the youth participants and discussed the emotional impact of the overnight watch; council members and staff praised the program's discipline and community service.
