  Bland County Historical Society at the 2017 Festival of Leaves - October 14-15, 2017

The Bland County Historical Society featured the Fallen Heroes of Bland County 1917 - 1994 at their booth at the 2017 Festival of Leaves. There was a video presentation about the Fallen Heroes of World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War. The men featured will be those who died wearing the military uniform of the United States during these conflicts.

The 2018 Bland County Historical Society Calendar, featuring these Fallen Heroes was available for purchase for the first time at the Festival of Leaves. We also prepared a coffee table sized book with much more detail about the Fallen Heroes of Bland County.

We were located in the Exhibit Building during the Festival of Leaves. Thanks to all whocame by to see our exhibit.
