What is Vest Up 4 the Fallen; it is a Give2Those annual event held on Memorial Day weekend in which we Honor, Remember, and Reflect on Those Who Serve and have Sacrificed. This year we had special bibs made to Honor the 13 Fallen it was also the first Memorial Day the Families had to be without their children.
