A Salute To Our Heroes Happens This Saturday In Abbeville
An event to honor all veterans in Louisiana, "A Salute To Our Heroes" happens May 30, 2015, at the Louisiana Military Hall of Fame and Museum in Abbeville.

The event will be a family-oriented event that gives the community an opportunity to honor veterans that have served our country, and gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy live music, food, and fun events.
Events scheduled include:
- Live music from Dustin Sonnier, Horace Trahan, and a performance by the Victory Belles!
- The "Double-Time For Troops" 5k run
- Booths include: face painting, balloons, Hero Hunts, American Legion (booth space is still available)
