The VTOT will conduct a ceremony to honor our Nation’s Fallen Veterans on this solemn National Holiday.
We encourage everyone to submit the name(s) of any fallen military Veterans from their family, friend or neighbors. We will honor them by reading their name aloud and ringing the VTOT Memorial Bell followed by a moment of silence.
To do so, please send as much of the following information as you know to this email address: info@vtotmi.org
Name, Rank, Branch of Service, Date of Death.
Example: John Jones, Sergeant, US Army, June 6th 1944, Normandy Beach France.

Everyone is welcome to attend, rain or shine. We hope to see you there for a brief time of reflection on the reason the Holiday Weekend.
Thanks to all the folks who attended our 3rd Annual Sporting Clays Classic on Friday, May 16th. We had over 151 participants come out to lend their support to the Veterans Tribute. The Sporting Clays and the Showdown competitions were literally a “blast.”
Congratulations to our top two teams – Team Tallman and Rewold & Sons. And congratulations to our top three individual shooters – Phil Auger, Dave Pilsaki, & Duane Truscott.
The team at MISHOOT provided outstanding support as always. We raised enough money to cover the next 18 months of operating expenses and enough to make a substantial donation to our Endowment Fund.
And here is a special Thank You & Shout Out to our event sponsors: Mr. Terry Gonser, Trilogy Inc, Artemis Search Group, Wilshire Benefits Group, Alliance Sales, JR Automation, Grandview Construction, Fives-Cinetics, ALRO Steel, Mr. Joe Aeillo, Mr. Steve Tallman, the Moceri Companies, and Tunkers North America.

The VTOT Board wishes to thank to Congresswoman Lisa McClain (the US House Representative for the Michigan 9th District), all our Guests, all the attendees and especially, ALL OF THE VETERANS who came out November 11th for what was a fantastic Veterans Day Ceremony!
The VTOT site is looking superb today thanks to the generous and dedicated efforts of a team from Marine Wing Support Squadron 471 (MWSS-471) out of Selfridge ARNG Base. Under the direction of Gunny Dan Love, the Marines spruced up our landscape and planted our fall flowers in record time. The VTOT Board wishes to give them a huge salute of gratitude. SEMPER FI!
