FYI

A procession of motorcycles will escort the American Veterans Traveling Tribute, a replica of the Vietnam Wall, to Burlington. Motorcyclists will meet at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Smokey Point rest area on I-5.

The Vietnam Wall replica will be on display in Burlington Thursday through Sunday at Skagit River Park. Get off I-5 at George Hopper Road, exit 229. Go east past Costco to the soccer fields. Volunteers are needed each day at the wall to do simple tasks.
