BACKGROUND
The Rosemount Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Committee is an officially endorsed program by the City of
Rosemount and works to organize the community's efforts to support military personnel and their families
during and after deployments. The committee has been active for about two year and has received official
state recognition.
Last month,Bogart's Place in Apple Valley held a golf and dinner event to raise money for the Apple
Valley and Rosemount Beyond the Yellow Ribbon groups. The net proceeds are being split equally
between the two groups and a check is being presented to the Rosemount Beyond the Yellow Ribbon
Committee tonight. Karl Xavier III, chair of Rosemount Beyond the Yellow Ribbon committee is present
to accept the check on behalf of our Beyond the Yellow Ribbon committee. The funds will help the
committee bring more visibility to its efforts to support military families and also support its many
activities.
