The Brooten American Legion held a Memorial Day program on May 26 at the Brooten Pavilion. The Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa high school band performed patriotic music, and the guest speaker was B-B-E elementary principal Josie Dingmann. She is a granddaughter of the late Harold and Harriet Jacobson, who passed away this past winter. They were long-time members of the Brooten American Legion and Legion Auxiliary.
Dingmann's keynote speech begins at about the 9-minute mark in the video. In the latter portion of her remarks, she describes how patriotism has become an important part of the culture promoted at B-B-E elementary school.
