American Veterans Traveling Tribute

The American Veterans Traveling Tribute will be available for viewing at the fairgrounds from 1 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13, through 3 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 16. Visitors are welcome to visit the wall around the clock. The exhibit is sponsored by The Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 452.

The American Veterans Traveling Tribute centerpiece is the Traveling Wall, an 80-percent scale version of the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington D.C.  Across its 370-foot length, the wall contains every single name etched on the original. Several Cost of Freedom memorials and exhibits also will be featured. Related events will include opening and closing ceremonies, wreath-laying ceremonies and memorial services.
