Memorial Day in the Gardens pays tribute to the dedication, sacrifice, and stories of local veterans through a special exhibit featured in the Memorial Day gazebo at the Sandhills Horticultural Gardens. Guests can view photographs, read biographies, and reflect on personal stories that celebrate the lives and military service of these community members in the tranquil atmosphere of the gardens.

Inside the gazebo, each veteran’s photograph is displayed alongside a QR code that gives visitors access to additional stories and recorded video interviews. These videos offer a more personal glimpse into the veterans’ military experiences, their lives beyond service, and their ties to the local community.
