Bringing to Life Our Symbols of Freedom

The Star Spangled Banner
The stage is set with the historical background of the War of 1812 and the subsequent attack on the battle at Fort McHenry.
This famous battle inspired the writing of the poem 'The Defence of fort M'Henry' and later titled "The Star Spangled Banner." It's four verses tell the tale of the battle and the unseccessful attempt by the British to take the fort.
This program includes the singing of each verse, telling the events of the night, and an explanation of each verse with an unforgettable, emotional conclusion.
The Pledge of Allegiance
We grew up saying it with hand over heart, it is recited at club meetings, in our schools and in our courts.
Do we really know what the words mean? How did we get the 'Pledge'?
This program reveals the origin and the historical significance of the Pledge, the orginal presentation including the singing of "My Country 'tis of Thee", and how we got the form we recite today.
This is a great program for service clubs, schools, luncheons, etc.
Let Freedom Ring
A look back at the ideas of Freedom and Liberty from the very beginnings of our country. The struggle for and how Freedom has been fought for and won these past 225-plus years.
Patriotic songs interspersed throughout the program bring to mind how special our country really is.

Patriotic Expressions - these programs remind us about the freedoms we hold dear in this country. Liberty and Justice are the foundation upon which this country was built.
