Greenon Local Schools is proud to announce the dedication of a new MIA/POW Chair at a special Military Appreciation Night to be held on October 18, 2024, at the Greenon Local Schools Athletic Complex. The ceremony will occur at 6:45 p.m., before the evening’s football game kickoff at 7:00 p.m.
This event is an opportunity for the entire community to come together in recognition of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of our armed forces, especially those who are missing in action or have been held as prisoners of war. The installation of the MIA/POW Chair serves as a permanent reminder of their courage and the gratitude owed to them.
All community members are invited to attend, and Greenon Local Schools specifically welcomes all veteran alumni. To commemorate the occasion, a group photograph of all Greenon alumni veterans will be taken directly following the dedication ceremony.
“We are honored to dedicate the MIA/POW Chair, which symbolizes the service of those who are still missing or were prisoners of war,” said Darrin Knapke, Superintendent of Greenon Local Schools. “It’s important for our students and community to remember the sacrifices made by those who protect our freedoms.”
