The Healing Field discussed - It will be in Murfreesboro Memorial Day Weekend

Apr 21, 2017 at 09:00 am by bryan


Our Guest: Marshall Campbell, Bill Ketron, JoAnne Skidmore and Kelsey Ketron...

Continuing a nine-year tradition, the Noon Exchange Club of Murfreesboro will post an inspiring formation of U.S. flags in tribute to our veterans, our military, and our personal heroes.

The Healing Field® Flags of Remembrance will fly over The Grove at Williamson Place, 3250 Wilkinson Pike. Those who have visited earlier Murfreesboro Healing Field® events know what to expect and will not be disappointed. Those visiting the event for the first time are in for an awe-inspiring experience. A grassy field posted with hundreds of U.S. flags presents an unforgettable panorama of red, white and blue that has earned the description "healing" as part of its name.

Everyone is invited to visit and support the Murfreesboro Healing Field® Flags of Remembrance display. Walk with amid the ordered rows of Old Glory where each full-sized flag waves atop an eight-foot white staff in a stirring formation. JoAnne Skidmore with the Exchange Club told WGNS, "Walking amid the flags, we remember and reflect upon those who died defending our nation and way of life."
