Congratulations to Aiden C. for earning Colorado's DeMolay of the Year award and congratulations to all of Broomfield Chapter for winning the Chapter of the Year award!

Aiden is a young man who has been working hard to help his Chapter show support for our Military. Shortly after joining Broomfield Chapter, Aiden coordinated a collection so his Chapter could work together to send Military packages to our troops. After seeing the success, his Chapter members held another collection and were able to send more care packages, and they received attention from our local news station, Channel 4 news. Now, he has started working on a "Stars for our Troops" program. His chapter is collecting old damaged flags, properly retiring them, and cutting the stars from the flags to hand out to Veterans, Military members, and our First Responders who put their lives on the line to make sure we stay safe. These stars are put in little plastic bags with a note of information, and a quote that reads, "I am part of our American flag that has flown over the USA. I can no longer fly. The sun and winds caused me to become tattered and torn. Please carry me as a reminder that you are not forgotten.” This project has touched many people, so many, that our State Line has now adopted it and will also be handing out "Stars for our Troops" on behalf of Broomfield Chapter. If you have flags that you would like to donate or would like more information on this program, please fill out a Contact Request Form we'll be happy to get in touch with you! Thank you! 

Congratulations to Broomfield Chapter for earning the Chapter of the Year award, and Congratulations to Aiden for his sense of Patriotism and for being named Colorado's DeMolay of the Year for 2017-2018!
