We are honored to welcome John Winfrey as our keynote speaker, who will share a message of service, sacrifice and remembrance.

A special tribute will be held for North Carolina's Missing in Action (MIA), led by the JROTC from South Stokes High School, with support from our local Boy Scout troop.  This solemn portion of the ceremony will be a moving highlight of the evening.

There will be many additional moments throughout the ceremony to honor our veterans and reflect on the cost of freedom.
This is more than an event - it is a time for our community to come together in remembrance, respect, and gratitude.
