Oak Grove, KY

Today I stopped to visit The Vietnam Memorial Traveling Wall. The wall is currently in Oak Grove, Kentucky at the Veterans Park. The Memorial Wall will remain here all weekend. The display is open around the clock for anyone to visit until 8:00 AM on Tuesday. The official opening ceremony will be held on Friday May 22, 2009 at 10:00 AM

The wall was last in the Clarksville, TN area 3 years ago. I missed the wall during that trip. If you have never had the opportunity to see the traveling wall, be sure to drive just across the Kentucky State line and see the wall for yourself.

Below are a few photos I took at The Vietnam Memorial traveling Wall.

Welcome to the Oak Grove War Memorial Walking Trail

Located just off Ft Campbell Blvd on Walter Garret Lane, the walking trail is a 1 mile trail taking stroll through time around the Viceroy Performing Arts Center. This is Oak Grove's Amphitheater.

This is a great place to have a family picnic, sit and enjoy the nature or even let the kids play on the playground. As you walk around the trail, there are a series of markers that show the each of the US Wars and conflict that involves each branch of our military.

The old school house is the newest addtion to the site. The school house in in the process of being restored and should be another piece of history to the property as well.

This sites on the far end of the Viceroy Performing Arts Center just off the walking trail.

Here are a few pictures around the park

This monument is located at the Oak Grove Tourism Commission's War Memorial Walking Trail Park on Walter Garret Rd in Oak Grove Kentucky. The walking trail is 1 mile long and goes around the Viceroy Performing Arts Center. Along the trail are markers representing the different wars and conflicts our military has been in around the world. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

Not to long ago The Viceroy Permforming Arts Center opened on Walter Garrett Rd and now the new Oak Grove Community Center is now under construction on Hwy 911 near the intersection of Pembroke Rd.

Oak Grove has come along way since I first arrived at Ft Campbell when I returned from Germany in 1992. Just take a look around and see all the new things happening in Oak Grove, Kentucky.
