Wreaths Across America returns to Waynesville
Started in 1992 by Morrill Worcester with the donation and placement of 5,000 wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery during the Christmas season, Wreaths Across America has grown to state and national cemeteries holding ceremonies of their own across the country to “remember, honor and teach” about our veterans — remembering not their deaths, but their lives in service to our country.
This year, Waynesville’s Green Hill cemetery will again become the local focus of this national event, and you can help ensure that every veteran’s resting place is adorned with a wreath by sponsoring one for $17. Sponsor two and a third will be donated.
Visit wreathsacrossamerica.org or call Wreaths Across America at 877.385.9504 and mention the Warrior Clan Fund Raising Group, Code NC0081, by Sunday, Nov. 15. The ceremony at Green Hill will be held on Saturday, Dec. 14, at 10 a.m. All are welcome to help in remembering and honoring our veterans.
