The Waseca County Veterans Service Office will be collecting submissions for inclusion on the county’s Story Stone. Submissions may be from any timeframe from the Civil War to the current time, and need not be from a conflict. It can be a letter, telegram, e-mail, or even video, which will be transcribed to written word for inclusion on the stone. While only a small portion of any contributed submission will be etched into the stone, likely a portion of a sentence, the stories will depict the life of our military families.
To provide a story, please provide a copy of your submission to the Waseca Veterans Service Office no later than Dec. 1, 2014. Please send copies of your correspondence submission to:
Attention: Dennis Dinneen, Waseca Veterans Service Office, 307 North State St., Waseca, MN 56093.

The dedication of the Tribute will take place on June 13, 2015 on the grounds of the Minnesota State Capitol.
