All DC Society members, family, and friends are invited to attend the 26th annual Memorial Day tribute to women in the military at the Military Women's Memorial. The Memorial is located at the entrance to Arlington National Cemetery, Memorial Avenue and Schley Drive. Depending on the weather, the event will be held inside or outside. Since the Memorial was founded in 1977, the DC Society has participated in honoring and remembering the contributions and service of over three million women. Our new DC Society President, Eleanore Boyse, will present the patriotic wreath on behalf of the NSCDA. As some may recall, the early wreaths were made from the boxwoods at Dumbarton House!
Seating will be reserved for Dames and their guests. Please contact Sandy Webster, a chair of the Patriotic Service Committee, to let her know if you can attend. She can be reached at sdw47tn@gmail.com or 703-455-0122.
Be sure to bring a government issued ID to enter the Memorial.
It is recommended that you take Metro.
