Flag Day

This annual program began on Flag Day, June 14, 2000 when over 300 bricks were dedicated and the monument unveiled. Join us at the Veteran's Memorial at 10:00am on June 14 for the Flag Day Ceremony and Brick Dedication. So far, this year, bricks will be dedicated in honor of THOMAS MANGIN, GARY L KLATT, BRIAN L AHRENS, MARVIN J HOFF, DAVID A BILLINGSLEY, FRANK SALMERON, WILLIAM P MCKANNA, DAVID L KLATT. We will be continuing to add names as more are mailed to us. The Dunn County Veterans Memorial Committee of Downtown Menomonie is responsible for the memorial and programs relating to it. The Community Foundation of Dunn County coordinates the brick program and manages the Dunn County Veterans Memorial Endowment Fund, which was established to maintain the monument. A FREE presentation will follow Flag Day at the Mabel Tainter Center for the Arts from author Dustyn Dubuque. His presentation will focus on Civil War Veteran, Newell Burch and his survival as a Prisoner of War. Burch has a commemorative brick in the Veteran's Memorial.
