Celebrating Veterans Day Weekend 2016

Computer Presentation Systems is based in Sacramento -- and we live downtown as well as in the foothills.  There were Veterans Day parades throughout the region; we're sharing Folsom's Wayne Spence Veterans Day Parade with you (and, yes; that's Johnny Cash Folsom!).

This annual parade features marching bands, floats, civic groups and kids -- Jr ROTC groups, Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, high school bands and service groups -- the estimate is about 2,000 people are in the parade and thousands more line the streets to watch. 

It's a rain or shine event; 2016 was an absolutely gorgeous fall day!

Enjoy your weekend and join us in thanking our nation's veterans as well as those serving today for their service!

Celebrating Veterans Day 2015

It's become a CPS tradition to recognize Veterans Day by thanking CPS family members and colleagues for their service to our country.  Of course, this special "shout out" is just a part of the nation's recognition of service and sacrifice by our service members.

And, we usually attend a Veterans Day Parade here in the local Sacramento area -- you can enjoy this community-wide celebration by viewing some of the photos.  Many don't realize several Sacramento facts: we actually have 4 seasons (the leaves are changing!) and the area played a large role in the California Gold Rush.

Please join us in thanking:

Bob Strickland, one of CPS' founders: US Air Force

Bob's father: Robert Musa (US Marines, retired)
Chris and Dave's father:  Michael Lott (US Navy, retired)
Michele's father: Robert DuBois (US Air Force)
Michelle's husband: Jerry Stone (US Navy)
Sean's father: Chris Miyazaki (US Air Force, retired)
Troy's brother: John (US Air Force)
Zoe's father: Charles Miller and brother, Wilson Miller (US Army)

Sit back and enjoy these Veterans Day 2015 Parade photos: join the youth organizations, adult service clubs, school bands, and residents as they honor veterans for their service.

Tomorrow's US Navy!

Service is part of our history

Girls Scouts join in!
