We were honored to attend the Southwest Association of Buffalo Soldiers Juneteenth flag raising event to commemorate the end of slavery and celebrate the extension of freedom to the African Americans whose backs this country was built on.

We also look forward to continuing to work with our partners at SWABS on the Henry Jones Legacy Park to ensure that the service and sacrifices of Mr. Jones and thousands of Buffalo Soldiers like him are honored in our community. Ready and forward we go!
