2008/08/26– Vietnam Memorial Moving Wall

One of the projects I’m currently involved with–and why this site hasn’t had much by way of updates this season–is hosting the Vietnam Memorial Moving Wall as it visits Whitewater Memorial State Park in September.

This is a half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington D.C.

Whitewater Memorial State Park is located approximately 2 miles south of the town of Liberty, IN on State Road 101. It was established as a living memorial to those from the surrounding counties (Fayette, Franklin, Union, and Wayne) who served during WWII.

If things go as currently planned, I will be speaking briefly running the sound equipment during the ceremony on Saturday, September 6, 2008.

UPDATE 2008-09-04 Here are the pictures from the event posted as time allows me to update them.
