Each time I pull up the website, I get the message "try again late May or middle of June" Since this if well into July, I'm wondering if you still have speakers available. Each November, we have a National Defense Luncheon in Rockwall, TX and I have been told that these Why We Serve speakers are excellent. Please let me know if the program has been discontinued.

Skipping the WSC x3 days and Jim callin the house. In between the tree on Argyle forrest in the rain on the way to the fair... For everyone out there that doesnt know this man real well, he def was telling the truth about his lifestyle growing up. Punk, hair changing, girl floater, typical teenager. He and I both can honestly say that the service was not for us and was a last resort. Boy we where wrong, he joined the Army and I joined the Navy. i have since gotten out but I am very proud and honored to call CJ a hero. Making tours over seas and leaving his family home wondering how he is, well he is A great father, friend and soldier. I know that i would be honored to serve next to him the field.
