There are items on display, pictures, and articles as well as a chance for each individual to share their story of service to our country.  Stan Yantis and his band provide the music starting at noon with rousing versions of military theme songs.  At the end of the ceremony, the ranks "fall in" and march to the waterfront to place a memorial wreath in North Bay in rememberance of all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.  Others in attendance also have the opportunity to participate.  Each year, the soleful rendition of Taps by Stan brings a heart wrenching internalization of just how much we have been given and at what price.</B></I></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>Allyn Days Festival - 3rd weekend in July</B></I></div> <div> <I><B>Allyn Waterfront Park - For Full Details - go to</B></I><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#CC0000" FACE="Arial" ><I><B> </B></I></FONT><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Arial" ><A HREF="http://www.allynACA.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.allynACA.com"><U><I><B>www.AllynACA.com</B></I></U></A></FONT></div> <div> <I><B>Annual Salmon Bake and Fair sponsored by the Allyn Community Association </B></I></div> <div> <I><B>Music, Food and Fun</B></I><I><B> for the entire family at the Waterfront Park with the very popular SALMON BAKE </B></I><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Arial" ><I><B>Saturday</B></I></FONT><I><B> from noon to 6pm.  There will be craft booths, demonstrations,  and a wine & beer garden featuring local microbreweries & Hoodsport wines.
