Red on Friday

If you notice staff wearing red on Fridays, it follows a decision to remember their loved ones. Three years ago, three staff had family members serving in the military and, at the time, in tumultuous locations. Since then, we still remember the two who continue to serve and the red reminds us of those who devote their lives to keep us free. We remain grateful for our veterans.
