September 9, 2023, 1:00 PM-3:00 PM Central

Neillsville, Wisconsin

Registration Open from August 9, 2023 to September 6, 2023

This event is open to military adult and child survivors.

We welcome all those survivors wanting to create connections to join us for a powerful guided walking tour of The Highground - Veterans Memorial Park. Nestled on 155 wooded acres, The Highground is a place that will inspire peace and renewal for all. The guided tour offers guests the opportunity to learn about the history of the Park and the meaning behind its tributes. The tributes honor the service and sacrifice of those who served in our nation’s military from WWI to present day. Families of service members are also honored and recognized throughout the Park. We hope visitors will be rejuvenated by the fresh air and leave with a renewed sense of peace.

About TAPS Togethers

Community is important! This is why we create a broad variety of opportunities to bring the TAPS family together. TAPS Togethers are one-day, organized, social events across the country, led by TAPS Staff or a survivor like you, with the goal of expanding our peer support community.

If there is not a TAPS Togethers event in your area, consider hosting one. You know your community best! Perhaps you know of a simple cost-effective way to bring TAPS families together for a day of hope and healing in your area. We would love to hear from you! Please submit your idea and we will connect with you to explore the possibilities.
