Daniel R. Olsen Post 594 has participated in an event to honor the Eagan High School students who will be joining the military after graduation. Usually the event is held at Eagan High School but with COVID-19, things were modified this year.Â
The event was held at the Central Park Pavilion. The students and families remained inside their vehicles for social distancing. The Keynote speaker was Past National Commander Dan Ludwig. Post 594 Commander John Flynn was the emcee for the event. Each student received a personal MN Senate resolution from State Senator Jim Carlson, individual MN House resolution from Representative Laurie Halverson, an American Legion Certificate of Appreciation, and a plaque from Eagan High School and a branch-of-service pins from Post 594. The event was coordinated by Eagan Teacher Paul Kovach.
