EVENTS & CEREMONIES
2024 Vietnam Veterans Memorial Ceremony Thank you to Maggie, Thomas, Chandler Robinson and others who shared your images with us. This event was profoundly moving and we are grateful for your support of the Semper Fi Barn.
Sherwin Williams Community Outreach- In one of the first-ever national community efforts, local upstate Sherwin Williams stores came together to re-paint and protect the Semper Fi barn. This effort started as a simple request for a paint donation and turned into a community service project for their team. Some employees and volunteers previously served in the military and felt a pull to make this a special staff project. Some volunteers used this opportunity to remember a friend or loved one. It was a very special day for everyone! Thank you to the team and to Sherwin Williams for the massive impact you have made to the Semper Fi Barn.
