Summer 2010 Scavenger Hunt

Veterans Day 2007 marked the 25th anniversary of the dedication of the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial in Washington, DC. In honor of this special event and as a complement to the Vietnam exhibitions which were on display at the Everhart, the museum presented “The Wall That Heals (TWTH),” a half-scale replica of the memorial. This dramatic replica was installed in Scranton’s Nay Aug Park for free 24-hour/day viewing for five days. An estimated 14,000 people visited Nay Aug to view this powerful memorial, which lists more than 58,000 names of people killed or missing in action. A Traveling Museum and Information Center, providing a venue for people to learn about friends and loved ones lost in the war, accompanied TWTH. The Everhart is grateful to everyone who helped make this event possible.

Each image will open in a new window.
