The official dedication of the Danby-Mt Tabor Veterans Memorial will be held on Sunday, Oct 16 at 2 pm at the Memorial site (South Main St & Mt Tabor Ave, Danby). All are invited to attend. While we will not have the marble plaza and benches installed, the other components of the memorial will be ready for dedication.
Approximately 100 chairs will be provided on a first come basis. You may wish to bring folding chairs to ensure you have seating.
