ARMED FORCES DAY
2018-05-19 | NY
ARMED FORCES DAY —
Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May. Thanks to President Harry S. Truman, it’s a day to pay special tribute to the men and women of the Armed Forces. President Truman led the effort to establish a holiday in order for citizens to unite and to honor our military heroes for their patriotic service in support of the United States of America.
Let’s all take time to celebrate this special day by wearing red, white and blue; flying the American Flag, talking with or writing to a military member, donating to military-based organizations, or sending care packages for those serving overseas.
A special THANK YOU to all of our Members who have served in support of our Country!

BURNT HILLS FLAG DAY PARADE
2018-06-07 18:00 - 20:00 | NY
Mark your calendars and get ready for this fun parade. This is a nice parade through the town of Burnt Hills. Line up starts at 6:00 PM at Capitaland Glass, 820 Route 50 (Saratoga Road) in Burnt Hills. Route 50 generally closes around 6:30-6:45 and the parade begins at 7:00 PM.
There will be an after-parade ice cream event for VIPer’s at Marcellas on Route 50 in Glenville.
Jim Gemmett is the organizer of this event. Contact Jim via email: jag643sr@aol.com with questions.

SARATOGA FLAG DAY PARADE
2018-06-09 10:30 - 12:30 | NY
We just received directions for our participation in the Saratoga parade on this Saturday, June 9. This is one of the biggest parades in the area, and well-attended, so dig out your car flags and come join us. Here is what you need to know:
We are staging in the 5th Division and lining up on the EAST side of 1st Street, not where we were last year. Set your GPS for 30 1st Street, Saratoga Springs (it may also be listed as Gansevoort on some) and we should be near there. It may be easier to approach from East Avenue instead of North Broadway.
They want us to arrive between 10:30 and no later than 11:00. That will give you time to walk around and see the mansions on North Broadway or shops downtown. The parade starts at noon. Don’t drink too much coffee, as there are no bathrooms near us!
City ordinance prohibits tossing candy from our cars.
At the end of the parade, instead of turning into Congress Park with the marchers, we will head straight south on Broadway. You will probably be hungry, so join us at the 13 North restaurant, 2955 US 9, Malta, across from the Mobil station at the red light, about 4 miles out of town. You can turn left at the light onto Choke Cherry Road and enter from the back.
The parade is “rain or shine”, but the weather looks good. If you get lost, look for someone wearing a yellow vest, or just ask around.
Hope to see lots of VIPERS there!

FLAG DAY - 2018
2018-06-14 | NY
The official Flag Day observance is on June 14th of each year. Flag Day is a time to respect the flag, to celebrate its origin, and to honor those who created the first flag. The flag flies over the United States to remind us that we are one nation, a nation under God; to remind us that we are a nation that is indivisible; and to remind us each day of those who fought to protect all who live within this nation. Written by Francis Bellamy, The Pledge of Allegiance states clearly the pledge to the flag and to the nation: I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
