Whereas, since the year 2010, the Fountain Hills Veterans of Foreign
Wars, American Legion and AmVets have shown support for American
servicemen and women by promoting "Red Shirt Fridays" in Fountain Hills;
and
Whereas, it is the desire of these organizations to reinvigorate this noble
effort to honor servicemen and women who contribute to liberty and
freedom in America and around the world; and
Whereas, by wearing red every Friday we are announcing silently that we
are grateful to our servicemen and women for their bravery and sacrifice
and that we will not forget them; and
Whereas, the red shirts are sponsored by the Veterans groups of Fountain
Hills, Arizona and the shirt states "We are Free, Because of the Brave;"
Now, therefore, I, Mayor Linda M. Kavanagh, do hereby once again
proclaim each Friday in The Town of Fountain Hills to be "Red Shirt
Friday," and urge each and every citizen to honor American servicemen
and woman by wearing red on Fridays.
DATED This 23rd day of July, 2013.
