How often are the items collected off the fence and chairs?
Items on the fence remain there a minimum of 30 days, unless it is an item left by a family member, in which they are left indefinitely, or until the family member requests for the item to be taken off. Items on the chairs remain there for at least 24 hours, except on April 19th when the items are left on the chairs for 72 hours. All items collected from the fence and chairs except live plants or items that have organic materials, are cleaned, cataloged and used in some way that fits within the mission of the Memorial.
