As Memorial Day approaches on May 26th, it is important to remember the reason for the observance. It is in recognition of the men and women who gave their lives in defense of our freedom. This is not just to recognize those that have served, but those who paid the ultimate price in that service.
Today, we celebrate with picnics and outings and cookouts with family and friends. Here are some safety tips to make sure you enjoy your Memorial Day Weekend.
