Promoting information on the Constitution has become an annual project for their members. Lisa Mulligan, Chief of Police for the city of Seatac, spoke at the September meeting about Arlington National Cemetery. Her moving presentation included a video about the cemetery and pictures of her own parents’ burial services there.
