Community Covenant Program

GARDEN CITY, Utah, July 13, 2013. Garden City Council.  Captain Simmons presented a slide show explaining the Community Covenant program.  This program is set up to help community leaders and military personnel to communicate better.  It allows the community to become more involved in helping the dependants of soldiers who have been sent overseas to cope while their loved ones are away.  There are lots of ways the community and individuals can help and support the soldiers’ dependants who are missing their loved ones.  The Community Covenant program makes sure that community is informed about all military personnel from their area, what the needs are of the families left behind, and suggestions on friend shipping and helping them.  The City Council felt the concept was a good one and thought the City should participate and decided to plan toward Heritage Days as perhaps a good time to start such a program.
