To Honor the Veterans of All American Wars
Both past and Present
For They Have Blessed Us
With Freedom by Their Service
This event includes a brief ceremony, a remembrance walk (one mile), and the presentation of the Walk of Honor Warrior Award.
“This year the Walk of Honor is paying tribute to the World War II veterans. It is only fitting with the 70th anniversary and with how rapidly we are losing our WWII veterans, that we let them know how much we appreciate them,” said Mary Teicholz, founder and organizer of the event.
