Still time to submit names of veterans for inclusion on Memorial Day Remembrance Wall of Honor

Wednesday, April 5, 2023 - 12:36pm

The Wake Forest Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources (PRCR) Department will present “Memorial Day Remembrance Walls of Honor” throughout May at E. Carroll Joyner Park, Alston-Massenburg Center, and Flaherty Park. In recognition of the service and sacrifice of women and men in uniform, these Walls of Honor will bear the names of as many as 500 veterans submitted by members of our community.

Through Friday, April 14, the PRCR Department will accept submissions, including the names of veterans, both living and deceased, along with the military branch in which they served, for inclusion on each wall. Please note: Names included on the Walls of Honor last year will be included again this year and do not need to be resubmitted.

There is no cost and no limit to the number of veterans each person can submit. However, the maximum number of names that can be accepted is 500.

Complete details, including a link to the online submission form, is available at https://bit.ly/WFWallofHonor. For more information, contact Recreation Center Manager Shawn Monday at 919-435-9554 or [email protected].
