Veterans of all ages
Bring the whole family on May 30th to Celebrate Memorial Day with free NC barbecue, military vehicle rides, live music, children’s obstacle course, parades, and much more.

This event is open to the public, rain or shine, at 3721 Quarry Rd Wake Forest, NC 27597. Don’t forget your lawn chairs and picnic blankets!
