In Walhalla, SC

Sponsored by the Blue Ridge Electric Co-op

Mark your calendars now for the inaugural Vet-Fest to be held in beautiful Walhalla, Oconee County, S.C. to the benefit of and hosted by Patriot’s Hall Veterans Museum.

Vet-Fest will be held November 13-14, 2009, beginning with a classic car and bike Cruise-In on Friday night including live entertainment by The FlashBacks ( www.theflashbacks.com ) and light refreshments on the grounds of the Oconee County Courthouse and Patriots Hall.

Kicking off the Ride of Honor at 9:00 am Saturday morning will be a continental style breakfast served at Patriots Hall. Officially starting at 9:00 am with last rider out at 11:00 am, the Ride of Honor will take the participants on route into rural Oconee County, through the gorgeous Sumter National Forest, onto roads seldom even recognized as having public access. Beautiful vistas of our mountains and stunning Fall foliage highlight the morning route and three stops have been added to enhance the experience.

Stage shows, honored guests, live music and great food by Uncle James BBQ await the riders as they return to Patriots Hall as the Ceremony to honor all our Vets continues back at Patriots Hall from 12-4:30PM

Patriot’s Hall Veterans Museum will receive all proceeds of the weekend's events to be used to complete the museums second floor including the addition of a WW 2 Harley Davidson Model WLA motorcycle complete with a properly dressed mannequin. Educational tours of the museum will be provided throughout the day Saturday.

In Honor of All Veterans for Their Service to Our Country.
