The memorial will be built at the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Randolph Center, Vt.

The memorial’s design plans were formally unveiled at a Nov. 11, 2009 Veterans’s Day event held at the cemetery. Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas and Gen. Thomas Drew (representing Vermont National Guard Adj. Gen. Michael Dubie, who oversees the cemetery), attended the event.

Plans call for a Memorial Day 2010 groundbreaking and Veterans’s Day 2010 dedication.

As of November, 2009, Vermont Fallen Families has raised $90,000 toward the memorial, and an additional $80,000 in in-kind services have been offered. Total cost for the memorial is estimated at $350,000, and will be generated solely through private giving.
