The list of Veterans we've lost in the past year as been updated.

On Monday May 25th , weather permitting, AMVETS Post 46 will conduct a brief Memorial Day observance at the Veterans Memorial Park. In order to comply with the latest directive the attendance will be limited to ten members of Post 46 including Joe Moore who will broadcast the event live on http://beaverisland.tv. It will also be taped by WVBI and rebroadcast later. Joe Moore will also make the ceremony available on the web.

Please help us observe the proper protocols and view the ceremony on TV or radio.

REMINDER...the service is not open to the public but you may view it at http://beaverisland.tv . Also it would be a nice gesture to visit the Island cemeteries and pay your respects to the Veterans (and everyone else) we have lost.
