The Juniata County Agricultural Society is sponsoring the 2018 County Fair at the Port Royal Raceway. The Fair Board has set aside time for a special event on Thursday evening Sept 6, 2018 from 5:30 to approximately 8:00. With the help of the county veterans service organizations, Veteran Affairs Officer, and private contributions, they wish to recognize and thank our veterans, both past and present, for their service to our country. The guest speaker will be prior county resident and former Chief of Staff of the U. S. Air Force, General Ronald R. Fogleman, Ret. And the Master of Ceremonies will be Chuck Rhodes (U.S. Navy). We will also be dedicating a new addition to the fair grounds. Hanging on 38 utility poles will be 24” x 48” color banners. On these banners will be either a photo, a likeness or a representation of, our fallen heroes with some information about them, covering WW I, WW II, Korea and Vietnam. All of these veterans served during a time of global conflict and all made the ultimate sacrifice. All had a connection to this community and they shall not be forgotten. Also, ALL veterans present, not just from Juniata County, at this event who served in uniform from 1 November 1955 through 15 May 1975, regardless of location, are eligible to receive a Vietnam War Commemoration Pin. This is in Accordance With Public Law 110-181 SEC.598; the 2008 National Defense Authorization Act. For further details, arrangements and or questions, please call or email the Event Organizer.
