Families, friends and Guard Members honor and remember service members who died in the course of military service, with activities and ceremonies held at Camp Dawson in Kingwood, West Virginia, on Sept. 27-29, 2024. Since its first congressional designation in 1936, the last Sunday in September has been recognized as “Gold Star Mother’s Day” and in 2012 was declared “Gold Star Mother’s and Family’s Day.” The West Virginia National Guard hosts Gold Star families from West Virginia and Pennsylvania annually at Camp Dawson for three days of fellowship and remembrance.
