The Wall That Heals will be escorted downtown Whiteville on Tuesday April 22, 2025 between 1230pm and 1pm. It will be escorted by Rolling Thunder SC-3 and many other motorcycle groups.
The Wall That Heals is a 3/4 replica of the Vietnam Memorial from Washington DC. It also has a mobile Education Center that will be on display at the Veterans Memorial Park of America April 24-27, 2025. This will be on display 24 hours till Sunday April 27th at 2pm. We will be having a WELCOME CEREMONY on Thursday April 24th at 6pm. And AGENT ORANGE AWARENESS CEREMONY on Friday April 25th at sunset.
As The Wall That Heals is escorted through town, we would like people to be on the sidewalks welcoming it with flags, banners, etc. We are checking with the schools about the bands playing as it comes through town. The schools are out on Easter Break. So we need all the help we can get to spread the word.
We need to spread the word about the In Memory Program. Deadline is March 25th for applications to be sent in. This is a program that will Honor Vietnam Veterans that came home but have passed due to their service in Vietnam. All applications sent in by March 25th will be Honored at our event and in Washington DC in June.
We need 200+ volunteers, so please share this as well.
Congratulations to all the winners of the A.R. Ammons Poetry Contest!! Thank you especially to the teachers for working with our talented students!
