This year's event will honor veterans and brave individuals who have served their country.  The Cemetery Stroll is Fort Collins’ oldest and largest living history presentation in which volunteer actors do graveside portrayals of people buried in historic Grandview Cemetery.  The theme for this year’s event is “Valuing our Veterans: Service and Sacrifice” and marks the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, as well as the 70th observation of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The annual Cemetery Stroll is the only historical representation in Fort Collins.
