"Honoring the Mothers of New Hampshire's Fallen Heroes" |
|||
|
____________________________________________________________
The New Hampshire Gold Star Mothers Memorial Association was created to honor New Hampshire mothers whose sons and daughters made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the Armed Forces of the United States of America. In doing so, a committee of volunteers has come together to erect a statue, designed by renowned artist Andrew Chernak. The planned location is in Stanton Park across Elm Street from Veterans Park in Manchester, NH. This committee has looked for some assistance and they brought together representatives from various Veterans groups in the State to assist and implement some of these activities. Included are: |
|||
| Combat Vets US Marine Riders Nam Knights Patriot Guard | |||
| Rolling Thunder American Legion Riders | |||
|
These are some of your Committee Team Members |

planned was a Motorcycle Run on October 20th. This event was a
success from all aspects, including weather, participation and quality
of the event.
Thanks to all the Sponsors who stepped up to help us, the many volunteers who worked hard to make this happen, and most of all, those of you who came out to support the event and the Gold Star Mothers. |
