North Texas Patriot Guard Riders were privileged to join the Community of Westlake, Texas in honoring all those who have served our great nation both past and present, and to also pay tribute to those heros who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.  When Riders arrived at the Westlake Academy Campus, flags were posted at all three entrances to the Campus and along J.T Ottinger Road.  Big Flag Bikes were positioned on a static line for public display. Riders mingled with the attendees as everyone took advantage of food provided by Meat U Anywhere BBQ and Catering, and enjoyed a variety of activities conducted on the green outside the academy gymnasium.  DSC Larry Key was asked to address the attendees with a short description of who we (PGR) are and what we do.  ADSC Rusty McNab volunteered to represent the PGR in a pie-eating contest.  As noble an effort as it was, he still finished last.  As the outside activities drew to a close, everyone moved to the gymnasium for the official program.  Westlake Mayor Laura Wheat made the official welcome and introductions.  Veterans were recognized and asked to stand as the military branch in which they served was called.  BSA Troop 170 posted the colors.  Mr. Stephen Thornton lead everyone in the pledges of allegiance to, first the American Flag, then the Texas Flag, and the singing of the National Anthem.  Bert Schultz, Chairman of the Westlake Historical Preservation Society, introduced the program’s guest speaker, Brian Fleming, who made a moving and challenging presentation.  Bert Schultz concluded the program with closing remarks followed by the benediction by Pastor Scott Brewer.  BSA Troop 170 retired the colors followed by the playing of taps.
