On opening day of the exhibit in Perryville on Tuesday, October 19, they are inviting Gold Star Families to a special preview of the memorial, from 9:00-11:00am in the museum.

Here are the full details:

The Fallen Heroes memorial, created by Veterans and Athletes United (https://www.facebook.com/vetsau), takes the form of an American Flag, draped over a fallen service member’s casket. It is made of over 7,000 dog tags with the names of service members who died in theater during the 20-year Global War on Terror (GWOT).

The memorial’s first stop will be in St. Charles County, at Veterans Tribute Park, from October 15-17, 2021. Open daily from 7 a.m. until half an hour after sunset. Veterans Tribute Park is located at 1031 Kisker Road, Weldon Spring, MO 63304.

The memorial will then visit Missouri’s National Veterans Memorial (MNVM) in Perryville, from October 19-26, 2021. It will be on display inside the James M. Eddleman Military Museum, which is free to the public, including free parking. Open daily from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. MNVM is located at 1172 Veterans Memorial Pkwy, Perryville, MO 63775.

2020 5k Walk/Run for the Heroes Announcement: We are disappointed to announce that the MMMF 10th Annual 5k Walk/Run for the Heroes, scheduled for 10/10/2020 has been cancelled due to the amount of time involved in planning, the current COVID-19 situation and the uncertainty that an event of this size will be allowed in October.
We do have a group of Gold Star Families that have been with us for years, some for all previous 9 years, that would still like to ask for donations to their “virtual team” in honor of their loved one so that they can still give out a scholarship in 2021 in honor of these heroes.
We have proudly raised and distributed $74,012.25 at the 2 previous 5k’s since we started this program.
Sponsorships and donations of any dollar amount can be made specifically to one team or can be donated to the Team “Scholarship Donations” and be divided evenly among these teams.
You can do this by following the team link and making a donation thru Pay Pal or mailing a donation to:
MMMF
PO BOX 1772
Fenton, MO 63026
We have appreciated your support over the last 9 years and your help
in honoring our Missouri Military Heroes from the recent conflicts that have made the ultimate sacrifice.
A big thank you from:
Chris Andrews Founder and President MMMF Board Members
and our dedicated volunteers
