Due to the weather forecasted for tomorrow the Ride-In has now a STAND DOWN. There will be NO ride-in at the NHSVC. All other events are still on as scheduled.
Please consider joining a group of us from various Veteran Organizations for a Ride-In to the NH State Veterans Cemetery for their Annual Memorial Day Ceremony and also for the Dedication of the Global War on Terror Memorial on Memorial Day, Monday 30 May 2016. Due to the anticipated record number of attendees for these two events the Director of the Cemetery has asked that the Ride-In enter the Cemetery no later than 10am to insure we are able to park inside the Cemetery.
Please RSVP if you or your group plan to attend. This is a rain or shine event, but severe weather will cancel the ride-in
