Miami Valley Veterans Museum OPEN HOUSE
Tuesday, September 12, 2023 (3:00 PM - 6:30 PM) (EDT)
Description
OPEN HOUSE TUESDAY, SEPT 12 3-6:30 The purpose of the Open House - Ribbon Cutting is to generate interest in the museum. So many times we hear from the people who do stop in that we have a wonder museum but 'we didn't know that you were here', and the people may actually live in the Troy, Ohio area. So, we are trying to change that condition. We would like to make this a museum that not only preserves the military history of the men and women of Miami County Ohio, but we also want to serve the community and its veterans at the same time. In addition to the museum activities taking place in-house, we also have outreach programs that help tell our nation's military story from the American Revolution through the Gulf Wars. Additionally, we have a strong relationship with the Miami County Veterans Services office as well as the Dayton VA. We hope to continue to revitalize our current building, but also expand into a larger building that is on our property. The cost of that project is going to be about $500,000 at current construction costs. The limit of our ability is currently limited only by the amount of money that we have to work with, so fundraising is a constant and is ongoing... another reason for the Open House - Ribbon Cutting. The Miami Valley Veterans Museum is a total volunteer organization and is a registered 501(c)(3) with the State of Ohio. We are, and dependent on donations and grants.Images
