9/10/10 – Alan Ellinger

Thank you, Brazoria County Cavalry for coming to Central Elementary on September 10, 2010. Your presentation to our assistant principal, Alan Ellinger and teacher’s husband, Bobby Hornback, put a face to the words “American Hero” and “Patriot”.  The students and teachers were moved by the parade of flags, first responder vehicles and motorcycles.  One teacher said that tears of pride came to her face as she looked at all the American flags and the parade.  The students had an opportunity to see what honoring someone looked like.  They heard about commitment to helping others and they had a glimpse of patriotism.  They were reminded that it is a privilege to live in a free county and attend school, but there is a cost to freedom. 

Thank you for sharing your efforts and time with us.
