Store Owner Rewards Patriotic Kids – They Get 1 Reward If They Can Recite Pledge of Allegiance

For generations, American students started their day with a familiar ritual. It was something we all took for granted—and was required. But in our dark day and age, even this tradition has been ripped from us. Radical “woke” liberals are trying to rid of the Pledge of Allegiance.

It seems Marxists hate the idea of Americans pledging loyalty to the very country they live in. Some schools have obeyed their demands, robbing children of this important part of their national heritage.

But people across America are working to preserve this piece of our culture and identity. In one Massachusetts town, a store owner came up with an ingenious way of encouraging children to learn the pledge. All through one summer month, they will be treated to a reward if they can recite it proudly.

From Daily Caller:
Kids who can recite the Pledge of Allegiance are receiving free ice cream at a shop in Massachusetts, WJAR reported Tuesday.

Nancy Diemoz, the owner of Eskimo King in Swansea, is hoping to promote patriotism through the national “I Pledge Project,” an event her store has been participating in since 2010, according to WJAR, a local NBC affiliate.

Ahead of Fourth of July, Eskimo King announced that any kid up to age 12 who could recite the pledge would receive free ice cream, according to WJAR.

“My boss really wanted to get into it when they started taking the pledge out of schools. She wanted to bring patriotism back into businesses,” Megan Medeiros, an 8-year employee, said.

In the quaint town of Swansea, Massachusetts, one ice cream shop is stirring the pot. Eskimo King, a local favorite, has a new policy. Kids get free ice cream if they recite the Pledge of Allegiance. That’s right—free ice cream for patriotism. Not a bad reward for memorizing something millions of us had to learn for free.

The promotion runs every Monday night from 4 to 7 PM in the month of July. Sorry parents, this is only for kids twelve and under. It is part of a program called “I Pledge Project” meant to teach children the Pledge of Allegiance. This movement began as some schools are taking out the pledge. Americans are coming up with ways of preserving and protecting the pledge, as liberals fight to erase it.

This is nothing new. Far-left progressives have tried to wipe out much of America’s national identity. They’ve torn down statues, protested the National Anthem, and even defaced the Constitution. Why wouldn’t they also try to stop children from proclaiming their loyalty to the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave?

Key Takeaways:

  • An ice cream store in Massachusetts is giving out free ice cream to children who can recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
  • This is part of a movement to preserve the pledge as public schools begin to eradicate it.
  • Progressives have long tried to undermine parts of America’s national identity, from the pledge to the National Anthem to monuments.
