Father’s Day Classic Car
Drive By Parade
At this printing time, we are
still up in the air about when our
home will open up to the public.
We are hoping for the middle of
June.
We are planning a Father’s
Day Classic Car Drive By Parade
and will be doing this on
Saturday, June 20 at 10 a.m.
Following our parade our
dads will come back inside and
have donuts and coffee to
celebrate their special day. If
families are able to visit, you can
come join us as well.
All of our father’s family members
are encouraged to participate
in this event. You do not
have to have a classic car to participate.
If you are planning on coming,
please call our front office at
417-345-2228 to ensure your
father is outside.

Flag Day
Flag Day is a yearly celebration
of honoring the American flag. Our
flag has seen many changes and
has flown all over the world. We
are proud of our flag and what it
represents to us and our fellow
Americans.
Flag Day is Sunday, June 14 so
we will celebrate with a variety of
activities throughout the next
week and finalizing with a flag
ceremony on the 17th.
We will all join in and show off
what our flag and country are
made of.
“You’re a Grand Ole Flag,
You’re a high flying flag,
And forever in peace may you
wave…”
Valkommen to Summer….
This month we are going to take a
little trip to the Land of the Midnight
Sun, the country of Sweden to help
them celebrate the Midsummer
Festival which occurs each year on
June 24.
Have you ever been to Sweden?
The closest we have gotten is eating
Swedish meatballs and the candy
Swedish fish. So, we are going to
research the country and its
festivities by playing their games,
trying out some of their delicious
foods, making a few of their crafty
items and discuss the Festival of the
Flowers. We are also going on a
virtual journey to Sweden with the
Front Porch Travelers.
