Memorial Day-Personal Narrative Analysis

265 Words2 Pages

It was Memorial Day in 2016 and I was planning on spending my day relaxing on my couch. However, my mom presented me with something new that changed my day's outlook. She told me that she got a call from one of her friends on Lions Club saying the local congressman, Scott Garrett, was looking for supporters to march in the local Midland Park Memorial Day parade with him. I have always been interested in politics, so I told my mom that I would love to, and went down to town hall where people were gathering before the parade. I walked down with my dad who was going to walk in the parade with the fire department. We met with my mom’s friend who introduced us to Representative Garrett. We shook hands with him and he thanked us for our support.
