Photo – The DeKalb County Veterans Assistance Commission has worked hard to bring The Moving Wall™ back to Sycamore and the Park District is honored to once again be the venue for this moving and poignant memorial. From July 13-17, 2017, the traveling Vietnam veterans’ memorial will be on display 24 hours a day in the Sycamore Sports Complex. The DeKalb County Chapter of VietNow brought us the Moving Wall™ for the first time in 1997 and again in 2007. The accessible path around the pond near the Good Tymes Shelter was built to accommodate the large volume of visitors and create a transition from the park atmosphere to a quiet place of remembrance, solace and awareness. More information and donations opportunities can be found here: dekalbcountywall.com Thank you to all DeKalb County veterans for sharing this experience with us and for your service.
