LEPC Asking for Support For First Responders

The Local Emergency Planning Committee will organize the 2023 Support Our First Responders Campaign from May 27 to July 4, said a press release.

LEPC will sell water bottles and asking for monetary donations to be distributed throughout first responders in Lubbock County. The campaign would support 41 Lubbock agencies such as fire services, law enforcement, emergency medical services, emergency management, volunteer organizations and public works. The organization is asked for support from community members due to raising prices and reduction in sponsorship hindering the ability to donate.

LEPC encouraged businesses and organizations who wish to donate will purchase pallets of bottled water. The estimated cost per pallet is $200. Private citizens with the ability to donate are asked to donate cases of water or monetary donations.

Donations can be dropped off to Market Street at 3405 50th Street on July 1 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Flag Day is June 14, 2023

lag Day, is a day for all Americans to celebrate and show respect for our flag, its designers and makers. Our flag is representative of our independence and our unity as a nation.....one nation, under God, indivisible. Our flag has a proud and glorious history. It was at the lead of every battle fought by Americans. Many people have died protecting it. It even stands proudly on the surface of the moon.

Raise the flag for our soldiers fighting a war for our freedom and for humanity.

Flag Day celebrates our nation’s most visible symbol of liberty, which is a banner to our freedom of speech, press, and worship.

As Americans, and as Latino Americans, we have every right to be proud of our culture, our nation, and our flag.

Join your neighbors, friends and family members and raise the flag today and every day with pride!
