Memorial Day Service
May 30 @ 10:30 am

Join in this very memorable ceremony to honor our veterans.  Let us never forget the sacrifice that others have made on our behalf.

Guest speaker will be Vietnam Veteran Pat Swanson.  Following the ceremony, the Vetarns Memorial Museum will be open with reduced admission.  Please join us for coffee and treats, and walk the gallery to remember our veterans.

In addition to the Memorial Day service, the Museum will host the annual service for the Veterans Tree of Life at 2:00 pm. This is a time to gather and remember our service men and women who have gone onto their eternal reward.  Everyone is invited to come and light a candle in the memory of a loved one who served our nation.

The Veterans Tree of Life is on permanent display in front of the large American flag in the gallery. You are encouraged to get your dog tag applications in as soon as possible.  Enrollment to the Veterans Tree of Life is accepted throughout the year.  Applications can be picked up at the Museum. Dog tags are constructed of metal and stamped in the same way that original military versions were done. Cost for each dog tag is a donation of $50 or more.  Additional extra dog tags for the same individual can be purchased for $25.
