Connecting Heroes: Veterans Talking To Veterans Event at the National Museum of Military Vehicles
The theme for this year’s annual Veterans’ Fair is “Circles of Healing, Service and Growth”. The entire day is dedicated to supporting veterans and their families – health, career, connection, suicide prevention, and other resources for veterans along with family fun including demonstration of tanks in operation and rides in military vehicles. The event will be held at the National Museum of Military Vehicles, just outside of Dubois, Wyoming. Admission to the fair is free for all.
The program kicks off at 8:00 a.m. with the Big Wind Singers from the Wind River Reservation and a flag raising ceremony. Throughout the day, distinguished speakers include Governor Mark Gordon, General Henry Huntley from the US Department of Veterans Affairs, Conrad Washington from the Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, David Clay Ward from VA’s Office of Rural Engagement, Leigh-Ann Webster from the National Board for Health and Wellness Coaches, Tim Sheppard from the Wyoming Veterans Commission, and Julie Elledge, CEO of Mentor Agility and the nationally recognized “Veterans Talking to Veterans” suicide prevention program.
