Join us at River Park Square, where we can honor and thank those who sacrifice and serve for country in dedication, honor, and pride!  The Salute to Service Expo is an outreach for Members of the Military Community including Active Duty, Guard, Reserves, Retired, Veterans and their families.

WHEN: Saturday, May 19, 2012
TIME: Noon to 6 p.m.
WHERE: River Park Square, Downtown

Note: The Lincoln Street entrance to the River Park Square parking garage will stay open all day Saturday, May 19 with access to ALL garage levels. The Spokane Falls Blvd. entrance to the garage will be closed all day due to the car show.

The Expo will feature historical images, local resources, and businesses who wish to honor our military community. A portion of the exhibitor and sponsorship fees will be donated to the Armed Forces and Aerospace Museum project.  When opened the museum will provide support to Regional History & Technology; Veterans and Service to Country; Aerospace Industry; and Conventions and Tourism.

This is your opportunity to welcome home veterans of all eras and our current returning military from combat zones while discovering continuing areas of outreach and support that you can join.  Please save the date and join our community at River Park Square in a day of sharing before celebrating more at the Torchlight Parade. 

The Spokane Lilac Festival will be celebrating its  74th Annual Armed Forces Torchlight Parade on Saturday evening, May 19, 2012 in Downtown Spokane for the 2012 ''Dream & Reach For the Stars.”  The parade includes over 200 units, the Lilac queen and princesses, floats, equestrian groups and individuals, groups of veterans and active military, marching school bands and more. 

Let’s show our military community that we appreciate their service and welcome them all home!
