The Evergreen Cemetery Benevolent Society would like to invite the public to join us in honoring our Country's Veterans on Memorial Day, May 26th at Evergreen Cemetery. This is our chance to pay tribute to these men and women.
We have veterans from all the wars fought by our country including a Womens Airforce Service Pilot (WASP). Mrs. Mary Helen Chappell attained the rank of lieutenant in the 1940's in WWll. She had hundreds of hours flying B-17s, B-29s, C-46s, C-47s, and C-54s.
We will have our 2nd annual Memorial Day Balloon Release as well as numerous historic re-enactors who will have encampments and displays.
Our very special guests will be the 10th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers. They will honor a veteran Buffalo Soldier with a horse back tribute. This is a very special sight and will not be seen anywhere else. The Buffalo Soldiers have a long and honored place in our history and enjoy sharing their wealth of historic information with the public.
In addition we will be providing light refreshments at no cost. Donations are always appreciated. We suggest an arrival time of 12:30. There will be special areas in which to park. We are located at 1005 S. Hancock (corner of fountain and Hancock.
