The City of Lincoln will honor veterans with a pair of events on November 11.  The 26th annual Veterans Walk of Recognition will begin at 9:30 a.m. at the southwest corner of Memorial Stadium. Local veterans are encouraged to join the walk  to the Veterans Memorial Garden in Antelope Park.

Flags will also be placed in the garden to commemorate Veterans Day.  The Veterans Memorial Garden is open daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m., including Veterans Day. The Veterans Day Ceremony will be at 11 a.m. at the Auld Pavilion in Antelope Park.

The program will feature welcome remarks from City Council member Sändra Washington. Lincoln Public Schools teacher Brian Goodbrake and students Jacklyn Alles and Eliana Genis Frank will discuss their recent trip to Normandy in honor of the 80th anniversary of D-Day.

The public is invited to attend the ceremony.
