19 April 2017 - Veterans History Project Workshop


Veterans:   Congressman Stewart's office is excited to partner with Utah Honor Flight in hosting a Veterans History Project Workshop on Wednesday, April 19th at 4:00 pm in St. George at the St. George Library located at 88 West 100 South, St. George, Utah.

The workshop will be a training for guardians, students, family members and friends of veterans who would like to start collecting veteran(s)' oral and written histories. This training is not for the actual veterans, as the training will be for individuals conducting the interviews with veterans. This is an awesome opportunity for guardians to learn how to best record their veteran's stories and submit them to the Library of Congress. Please share this information with your fellow guardians and friends.

The oral and written histories are collected and submitted to the Library of Congress to be included in the archives and for research. To learn more about the Project you can go to the following website: https://www.loc.gov/vets/. ABOVE is the link to the flyer for the event. Please RSVP by emailing Candice Pierucci at Candice.pierucci@mail.house.gov.

12 May 2017 - Pine View High School AFJROTC Awards Night



Let me thank you once again for your firm support of our program.  We honestly could not run this program without the many people like you who believe in these cadets as our future.  As you know, our annual National Awards Ceremony is scheduled at the Pine View High School Auditorium on Friday, 12 May 2017. Social hour starts at 1730 in the Pine View High Commons, with the Awards Ceremony starting promptly at 1900 hours in the adjacent auditorium.  We would like to ask you to ensure all of your organization’s members are aware so they can plan to show support to this great bunch of youth. There will be food available during the social hour, so you won’t need to eat dinner before you come!

There will also be a silent auction taking place up until the time the formal ceremony starts. Our board, which consists of Lt Colonel Thomas Brown & me, Senior Master Sergeant Doc Thomas.

Thanks for your super support throughout the years when I was at Dixie High School! Please email any questions or concerns.
