The Big Horn Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution is honoring the 250th year anniversary of the founding of our nation with a bronze patriot plaque. The plaque is displayed at the Veterans Memorial Park in Cody and commemorates the men and women who achieved American independence.
These patriots, each believing in the noble cause of liberty, fought valiantly to found a new nation. According to Chapter Regent Judy Ducey "this plaque serves as a lasting reminder of their determination and ideals of freedom and independence for which they fought. We hope it inspires future generations to remember our history and cherish the freedoms we enjoy today."
The local DAR Chapter paid for the plaque with grant funds from the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution and local donors.
A dedication ceremony will be on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, at 2 pm at Veterans Memorial Park. We invite the public to join us in honoring our country's first veterans.
