Memorial Day weekend is coming up and there is a lot to celebrate and honor! This nation could not be what it is today if it was not for the men and women that have served this country in the armed forces. Here at TMoM, we thought it would be helpful to compile a few of the events in the Triad that are celebrating Memorial Day.
