A Memorable Memorial Day Memorial Day was created to remember those who died while serving our country. The federal holiday originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union and Confederate soldiers. Today, the holiday commemorates all of those who served in the American military who sacrificed their lives for our country. It is observed every year on the last Monday of May. Originally, Memorial Day was known as Decoration Day because the graves of soldiers were cleaned and beautified with flowers and flags. Moina Michael is credited with the idea to wear red poppies on Memorial Day in honor of those who died. In 1915, she was the first to wear one, and sold poppies to raise money for charities serving soldiers in need. In 1922, the VFW began to sell poppies and expanded the program to selling artificial poppies made by disabled veterans. In 2000, Congress established the “National Moment of Remembrance,” which asks that at 3 p.m. local time, all Americans “To voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a Moment of Remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to ‘Taps.’” Memorial Day also is considered to be the unofficial start of summer.

nation last year at the national championship in Wheeling, Ill. There are more than 1,000 children participating in step programs within the Midwest. We are one of the smallest and also the only team within Northern Indiana to compete regionally and nationally. As you might imagine, it takes a lot of volunteering and financial support to make and organization of this size successful. Registration fees are charged; however, these fees alone do not cover all the team’s expenses. We would greatly appreciate it very much if you could make a tax deductible donation in honor of our Maverick Steppers. The donations will assist with lodging, transportation and performance fees.
