More good Holdingford educator news. Mike Guenin long time elementary music teacher is has been invited to go to Washington, D.C., this weekend to sing at the reunion of the Vietnam Security Police Association, he will sing the song "Before You Go" at the reunion of The 13-year-old organization's reunion which is coinciding with the 25th anniversary of the Vietnam War Memorial. Mr. Guenin will fly in Friday and sing at a banquet on Saturday — the same day he turns 58. He will leave Sunday to be back in time for school Monday. Guenin, who did not serve in Vietnam, noted that some Vietnam veterans have had difficult lives because of the war and since returning. It's the least I can do is go sing for them," Guenin said. Good for you Mike ! There was a article in the Stearns County Enterprise and the St.Cloud Times also.
