Organizers of the recent USD 251 North Lyon County Honor Flight trip say that by all accounts the recent 48-hour adventure within the nation’s capital was a rousing success.
Organizer Shawn Wilson tells KVOE News all of the students and veterans who made the trip to Washington DC between Sunday and Monday reported it was a trip full of memories and experiences they will never forget.
Wilson says in addition to the time and energy students put into fundraising, the trip would not have been possible without the high level of support shown by the local community. He adds it helps that the Honor Flight mission is one that just about everyone can get behind.
USD 251 partnered with other school districts in organizing the trip including USD 421 Lyndon. Wilson thanked the other organizers and administrators for including the district and helping give their students and veterans the opportunity to be a part of the experience.
