The Village at Legacy Pointe – Unveils Veterans Wall
Courtesy of Village at Legacy Pointe:
A new Veterans Wall is up at The Village at Legacy Pointe in Waukee.
The wall features photos of all veterans living at the community and will grow over time as more veterans join the community.
“We wanted to create a permanent feature to honor our veterans,” said Amy Barth, Executive Director at The Village at Legacy Pointe.
“They have given so much to serve the country and this is a small way in which we can show our appreciation.”
