There is an Essay Contest for children, from any school, grades 5-8 and 9-12. Entry requirement is that the student visits the Fallen Tribute Towers while on display at the American Legion.  1st, 2nd and 3rd place cash prizes in each age category. Visit the website to download the Essay Packet, or pick one up when you visit the Fallen Tribute Towers.  Submissions will be due by Wednesday, November 11th and winners will be chosen on Saturday, November 14th. 

The Fallen Tribute Towers is a traveling war memorial that honors our post 9/11 military Fallen. Consisting of 32 towers, it includes photos of the military men and women killed in action in Iraq and Afghanistan, those that were killed in training accidents and attacks stateside and on overseas bases, as well as those who took their own lives once returning from war due to post-traumatic stress.

This moving exhibit will be on display outside from Wednesday, November 4th (2pm) until Sunday, November 8th (12pm) and is open for public viewing 24/7. Visit https://www.alch372.com/fallen-tribute-towers/ for complete information.
