GRAND ISLAND, STUHR MUSEUM - Over 300 people attended Stuhr's 1899 Memorial Day Celebration on Monday, May 25.
From the flag-led procession to the cemetery to the patriotic program and band concert to the games on the green, Memorial Day is a tradition for many around the area. For more than 20 years, Stuhr's 1899 Railroad Town has hosted a tribute to those who have served in the military and this year, despite storms later in the day, the tributes were as prescient and moving as ever.
Keep an eye out for next year's Memorial Day event in May of 2010. For more information, call the museum at (308) 385-5316.
