<p>The City of Auburn is holding a very special ceremony tomorrow morning.</p>
<p>We invite you to please join us this <strong>Friday, May 27 at 10:00AM at Mt. Auburn Ceremony</strong> as we unveil two beautiful new monuments honoring the veterans who so proudly served America in wartime &amp; military conflict. Maine Governor Janet T. Mills will be our special guest.&nbsp;</p>

<p><em>During the initial days of Covid, when the gathering at Veterans&rsquo; Park was cancelled, the City of Auburn decided to hold an outdoor ceremony at a long-forgotten memorial at Mount Auburn Cemetery which was erected in 1946 by the Lions Club of Auburn. The memorial listed major conflicts in American history up to World War 2. It was later updated to include the Korean and Vietnam conflicts but had not been updated since 1975.</em></p>
<p><em>On that day, Mayor Levesque made a promise to those in attendance that the city would erect new stones to appropriately recognize a new generation of veterans, from Grenada to Panama, from the Cold War to the Persian Gulf War and the Global War on Terror. The Auburn City Council appropriated funding, the stones were designed, and now they are done and are ready to be unveiled for our community. Promises made, promises kept.</em></p>
