On August 27, we had the opportunity to host a tile-painting event at the Richard I. B**g Veterans Museum for their incredible volunteers and staff!

We were amazed by the creativity and talent they brought to their tiles—and even more impressed by their love, passion, and knowledge of Richard B**g and his legacy!

Thank you all for joining us!
