Sounding of Taps, by Dani Masterson Day: Sunday - Monday, May 30, 31, 2021 Time: Start time is 3pm for 24 hours Location: Mesier Park in the Village of Wappingers Falls As reported in the Beacon Free Press, Dani Masterson, National bugler for the Spirit of 45 and New York State Director of Bugles Across America, will lead the sounding of Taps in a 24-hour tribute for Veterans on May 30 through May 31, Memorial Day. Beginning at 3pm on May 30, Dani will sound the 24 notes to Taps every hour and continue for the following 24 hours. Normally she is in Washington, DC to commemorate, but wanted to do something different this year. "I learned how precious it is to have a bugler come to the grave site and honor the loved one with the sounding of live Taps. It is a ceremony where family and friends can all join together to say 'goodbye, well done and thank you!' to heir Veteran family member. It is a time to honor, and a time to mourn the ultimate sacrifice of their Veteran family member," Dani told the Beacon Free Press. www.AmericanTapsGirl.org Memorial Day Ceremonies in Beacon: Small Wreath Ceremony Day: Monday, May 31, 2021 Time: 9am Location: Bridge on East Main Street Near Roundhouse Small Wreath Ceremony Day: Monday, May 31, 2021 Time: 11am Location: Veteran Memorial Building, 413 Main Street, Beacon, NY Memorial Day Eve Flag-Changing Ceremony at Walkway Over The Hudson: Day: Sunday, May 30, 2021 Time: 8pm Location: Walkway Over the Hudson, 61 Parker Avenue, Poughkeepsie, NY On Sunday, May 30th at 8pm, the Walkway Over the Hudson will host a sunset Memorial Day Eve flag-changing ceremony to honor local servicemembers who lost their lives defending their country.

A fatal medical diagnosis in 1991 convinced Edward Said that he should leave a record of where he was born and spent his childhood, and so with this memoir, he rediscovers the lost Arab world of his early years in Palestine, Lebanon, and Egypt. Said writes with great passion and wit about his family and his friends from his birthplace in Jerusalem, schools in Cairo, and summers in the mountains above Beirut, to boarding school and college in the United States, revealing an unimaginable world of rich, colorful characters and exotic eastern landscapes. Underscoring all is the confusion of identity the young Said experienced as he came to terms with the dissonance of being an American citizen, a Christian and a Palestinian, and, ultimately, an outsider. Richly detailed, moving, often profound, ‘Out of Place’ depicts a young man’s coming of age and the genesis of a great modern thinker.” This & many more good reads from Binnacle!
