At the presentation were (l-r) Tommy Wenzel, Al Janak, Kim Reeves of Bluebonnet Youth Ranch and DeWitt CFB President Robert Nagel. Bluebonnet Youth Ranch is a nonprofit provider of residential care for dependent children.

DWCFB is proud to help with part of this grocery bill for the week of Feb. 19-25.We support our local VFDs!

View our videoStars and Stripes flies proudly
over DeWitt County Farm Bureau! View photosThe inspiration for the purchase and installation of the flag is the sacrifice, heroism and determination of our United States of America servicemen and women, during the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. (See the list at http://www.iraqwarheroes.com/)
An aluminum container with the names of all involved in the flagpole erection was placed in the flag pole base. After the flag pole was erected, we thanked God for the privilege of being Americans, for our troops, their families and their sacrifice for our great nation. A memorial rock base and plaque will be installed prior to the dedication ceremony.
