The Governor Isaac Shelby Chapter held a Color Guard Training event yesterday in Middletown, Kentucky.  This allowed  existing Color Guard members as well as Kentucky SAR members interested in joining the Color Guard to learn rifle drills, firing sequence, marching, posting and retirement of the colors, salutes and honors, wreath presentation, and flag folding.  There was a good turnout from several state chapters.
