HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) – Want to be part of Huntsville’s history?  The Huntsville Madison County Veterans Memorial is offering you that opportunity.

Supporters are collecting military artifacts to put in a time capsule that will be buried at the memorial.

You have two more dates to contribute artifacts.  If you have something you believe would be appropriate for the time capsule, please bring it either September 15 or September 22 to Smith Storeit Storage Facilities at 1014 County Road in Huntsville.  It’s just near the Madison County Farmers Market on Cook Avenue.

The hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. both days.

Individuals are encouraged to bring their items which reflect the military service and contributions to and for Madison County veterans.  Those items selected as most reflective will be placed in the Huntsville Madison County Veterans Memorial and interred at the base of the Memorial’s Alabama flag for 50 years during the Memorial’s Dedication Ceremony on November 17.
