About The Event

A World War I Remembrance - Bells of Peace

The Taylor County History Center is pleased to announce its participation in Bells of Peace: A World War I Remembrance, a collaborative program created by The World War One Centennial Commission whereby American citizens and organizations, across the entire country, are invited to toll bells in their communities twenty-one times on Sunday, November 11, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. local time.

Twenty-four residents of Buffalo Gap served in World War I, two of which were Killed in Action. Taylor County History Center is happy to have located the relatives of George F. Ridenour, one of the KIA, who will be our honored guests at a nondenominational ceremony. The ceremony will start at 10:00am including prayer, hymns and stories from World War I.

Attendance is free. #TolltheBell
