SHOWING GRATITUDE
I would like to thank our (Florida Cops on Top Summit for Heroes) sponsor, McKenzie Buick GMC, Milton Fla., who set up a starting location, provided coffee, donuts and pastries, and financial support.
Also:
●Good Time Tours provided a bus to transport non-motorcycle riders, family members, including children.
●Santa Rosa, Okaloosa and Walton counties’ sheriff's offices and Milton Police Department for the excellent escort, demonstrating their respect as the procession passed, standing at attention, (and) saluting as the colors passed.
●Our neighboring Blue Knights Chapters BKFL XXV, BKFL XXVI, Red Knights FL VIII, Green Knights 89 and various other riders and groups.
●Several businesses in surrounding counties donating merchandise, money and time.
●BKFL XXXI, Blackwater Chapter members and family members, who worked at not only organizing but (also went) out and requested support from these local businesses.
●We are also thankful for 4C's Bar BQ, who hosted and provided lunch at their location in DeFuniak Springs.
This event is the last Saturday of June, rain or shine. We are hoping to have plans drawn up, and approval from the Walton County (Board of County Commissioners), to get a monument donated, and have it in place for June 2017 event.
I appreciate the media coverage and support.
Anyone wishing to contact our chapter to get more information can contact me at iceburg6@yahoo.com or messenger me at FB Blue Knights Florida XXXI, Blackwater Chapter.
BILL BRANDENBURG
President, Blue Knights FL XXXI,

NOT ALL IN ON SOLAR ENERGY
If solar is so great, then it would pay for itself without help from the government.
I love the excuse that it cuts waste and greenhouse gases. The truth is the production of the hardware, and eventual disposal, overtakes the so-called benefits.
When solar pays for itself, I'm 100 percent in. Until then, don't make me pay for other people’s solar.
