we attended a wreath ceremony in Black Mountain NC this past saturday. a great way to remember & honor our veterans.

there are over 3000 graves here but there were only about 700 wreaths.

a $15.00 donation funds one wreath,a
$30.00 donation funds 3 wreaths for next year.

the vendor who supplies the wreaths, adds one for each donation of $30.00 for a total of three..

you can also choose a cemetery to be honored.

Very nice.

Thanks for sharing, Trailblazer. I'm sure the lessons that young granddaughter is learning will make a lasting impression.

it has already. since we lost my nephew in Afghanistan this summer, she has really become interested in these types of endeavors & she loves the Marines.

It's nice to see people remember. Great service for all and an excellent way to educate our young people in the sacrifice others have made.
