Every year, Veterans Day gives us a chance to pause and honor the sacrifices, courage and patriotism of the men and women who have worn the military uniform. Peachtree Corners residents will have an opportunity to honor its own on Monday, November 11 at the Veterans Monument located on the Town Green at the Peachtree Corners Town Center (5200 Town Center Boulevard, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092).
The 45-minute ceremony will begin at 11:00 a.m. and will include music by the Norcross High School Band and A Capella Chorus, posting of colors by Norcross High School JROTC and guest speakers. Film actor Daryl Keith Johnson will recite an article titled, “A French Soldier’s Impression of Americans.” The ceremony will conclude with taps to honor all veterans and active service members who have died in the past year and retirement of colors.
There will be seating for about 200 people and golf carts available for those who need assistance getting to the monument.
Please arrive by 10:45 a.m. so we can start precisely at 11:00.
