memorial day

Dierks Bentley is helping 'GNA honor the men and women who died fighting for our freedom with a Memorial Day special on 107.7 Monday morning.

I wanted to teach my children the meaning of Memorial Day in a way that they could understand.  It's hard to wrap your head around war and death at 3.  So, my husband and I took the kids to the Lansingburgh Veterans Memorial Day Parade...

Taste of Country Music Festival headliner and overall good guy Brad Paisley went way out of his way to honor the troops over Memorial Day weekend.  He flew to Afghanistan for a surprise visit to Bagram Air Base where he played an hour-long acoustic set for about 3,000 U.S. troops!

So I'm walking out of the Carroll Hill Elementary School this week, having just completed another great musical experience with elementary kids, and this plaque caught my eye

Memorial Day is the unofficial start to summer, but let’s not forget what it’s really about.

There are parades and ceremonies scheduled all over the Albany-Saratoga area for this Memorial Day weekend.

Country Music has some majestic and powerful compositions to honor our fallen heroes.

What other subject could you cover this week?  It has to be about the troops and the flag and patriotism and all that good stuff. You, our faithful listeners did it again!  I absolutely loved the lyrics to this one.  It almost wrote itself!

Time for you veterans to get some "payback" for all you've done this Memorial Day and Warriors in the Workplace organization is just the group to provide it

This is great.  Someone out there has a blog called Funnycommercials.  He found the top 5  ones about America's favorite Memorial Day beverage, BEER.  I thought I'd share this quickly.

No matter what the statistics show out there, finding a job is still pretty tough, especially for ex military.  But are you aware of the "Warriors In The Workplace" organization? It's definitely a fitting time to mention this on Memorial Day weekend

Got any Memorial Day plans? Maybe you’re heading to a parade and dressing up in those American flag shorts (guilty). Or perhaps heading to the public pool to kick off swimming season is more your style. Whatever you do, there’s one Memorial Day staple that all Americans must experience on Monday— the BBQ.
