Honoring Virgil’s Veterans
November 11, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
On Veterans Day, the Virgil Historical Society will lead a cemetery walk to honor veterans buried in the Old Virgil and Virgil Rural Cemeteries. We have selected veterans from each of seven conflicts to represent the service and patriotism of all of our military men and women. Participants may bring a small memento to leave at each grave, if they wish (flag, flower, poem, etc. Please weight down anything that might blow away.)
Meet at the Virgil Town Hall at 1pm
Dress for the weather
Bring 15 small mementos, if you wish
