The Evansville Community Remembers Our Veterans
Evansville will host several activities during Memorial Day weekend to remember our veterans. On Saturday, May 26, 2007 the Evansville Boy Scouts, American Legion Post 35, VFW Post 6905, and area volunteers will honor our veterans at area cemeteries. The placing of the American flag on veterans’ graves will take place at 9:00 AM.
On Memorial Day, May 28th, a parade from Main Street to Maple Hill Cemetery will begin at 10:00 AM. There will be a special cemetery ceremony and presentations by American Legion Post 35, VFW Post 6905, Evansville Community School Bands, and the Boy Scouts. Our district assemblyman, Rep. Brett Davis will be the guest speaker.
The Rally in the Alley at the VFW building after the ceremony will feature food, drink and live music. American Legion Post 35 will host a silent auction during the rally from noon to 2:30 pm. Everyone is welcome as the Evansville community treasures our past, celebrates today, and envisions our future-together. For more information please contact Terry F. Haines, Commander, American Legion Post 35.
