ABOUT AUDIE MURPHY DAY WEEKEND
Audie Leon Murphy, the most decorated,
combat soldier of World War II.
Every June, in commemoration of Audie Murphy's birthday and Homecoming Ceremony in June, 1945, Farmersville remembers and honors Murphy and all veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
During this special weekend Farmersville rolls out the red carpet to welcome veterans from across the nation; U.S. Army Ft. Hood's Audie Murphy Club and other military delegations; special dignitaries and all our local families to celebrate our freedom, learn of our history and recognize our veterans.
Some highlights include Farmersville's Patriotic Parade and Veteran's Recognition Ceremony. Veteran's and their families, registered for the event, receive complimentary breakfast and lunch on Saturday. All visitors will enjoy special events on Friday and Saturday including the Farmersville Heritage Museum's Audie Murphy Exhibition.
