Cave Creek Students Bring Veterans’ Lives to Life

Veterans deserve our thanks on Veterans Day, to be sure.  But Cave Creek high school students said “thank you” in a way that honors them on Veterans Day and well beyond.   Perhaps more importantly, they have found a way to help themselves and fellow Falcons appreciate Veterans in ways that will make a lasting imprint – perhaps for life. 

Look what Cactus Shadows High School students have been doing to honor Veterans in Cave Creek – read about the Cactus Shadows Arizona Heritage Project.  They have compiled three amazing books, each one filled with detailed life and military stories.  I have all three of them,  many of them signed by the Veterans themselves who shared their experiences with the students and their parents at the celebrations honoring them.  

Here is a recent article about the project from The Rodel Foundation of Arizona online: Oral History Project.  Congratulations, Cactus Shadows!  And Thank you, Veterans!
