MINERAL WELLS — The annual Friends of the National Vietnam War Museum spring fundraiser this year will be a fall fundraiser. The group was forced to reschedule the event that was planned for Rahr Brewery in downtown Fort Worth. However, the establishment saw its roof cave in after the recent record 12-inch snowfall. The fundraiser is now set for Sept. 18. You can make reservations now. Tickets are $45 in advance, $55 at the door. You can purchase tickets at the Mineral Wells Area Chamber of Commerce or order them by writing Friends of the Museum, P.O. Box 146, Mineral Wells, TX 76068.
