Dedication of the Vietnam Memorial Plaque!

Thursday, May 30
Walnut Park, Petaluma
2:00 p.m.

Backstory and Blog:

As many are aware, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Plaque in Walnut Park was taken from its foundation in December, 2012.  In the aftermath of that theft, a huge up-swelling of support from Petaluma and surrounding towns and cities created a fund to ensure the replacement of the plaque.  After weeks and months of planning and permissions, the plaque is well on its way to re-installation.  Dedication of the new plaque is set for Thursday, May 30 at 2:00 p.m. Please plan on attending if you can.

See our photo journal for updates as we get them.  If you have any questions, please contact the Petaluma Museum at 707-778-4398.  A warm thank you to all whose efforts and contributions are making this restoration possible!
