SEQUIM — The Carlsborg VFW and the Sequim Museum & Arts Center will host a veterans gathering at 544 N. Sequim-Dungeness Way at 3 p.m. Saturday.
The Cavalcade of Flags dedication will honor all those who had served their country in the military.
The flags are the final touch for the veterans’ memorial, which includes the Monument Wall that bears the names of 220 veterans from the Civil War to the current conflict in Afghanistan.
“The whole thing has been a labor of love, with money and materials donated by businesses and individuals,” said Judy Reandeau Stipe, volunteer MAC executive director.
The memorial cost between $25,000 and $30,000, she said.
The dedication is “totally separated from the all-class reunion,” Stipe said.
It was scheduled during the reunion so that those who are from out-of-town, including those who have tiles with veterans’ names on them, can see it, she said.
Anyone interested in a tile can download an application from www.SequimMuseum.com, where the instructions are found.
