Posted: Wed, May 27, 2020 9:25 AM

Eighth grader Brenna Parker, daughter of Brent and Bridget Parker of Decorah, has been awarded the annual Daughters of the American Revolution Youth Citizenship Award. Due to current COVID-19 closures, the award was presented virtually through a Zoom meeting.

The DAR Youth Citizenship Medal was established to foster among
schoolchildren a greater appreciation of the qualities of citizenship
Americans must possess if our country is to remain sovereign and
independent. This medal is presented to a student who exemplifies the qualities of honor, service, courage, leadership, and patriotism. Brenna was nominated for this award by her teachers. The award was presented by Sarah Nowack of the Hannah Lee Chapter of National Society Daughters of the American Revolution.
