The mission of Wreaths Across America is “remember, honor, and teach” and it’s really focused on teaching young people about citizenship and the sacrifice of veterans. There around 2,523 veterans that are in the cemeteries across Ware.
Last year there were enough wreaths to cover 532 graves at the four Ware municipal cemeteries (Aspen Grove, Church Street, two at the Meetinghouse) with the donations received. Bonus wreaths were received which allowed Holy Cross Polish National Cemetery to be covered and part of the Quabbin Cemetery.
Youth and their families support at this event is welcome. If you would like to take part, the ceremony will take place at Veterans Park on Saturday, December 14 at 10:00 a.m. They will hold the opening ceremony, laying branch specific wreaths at the park, then moving on to Aspen Grove Cemetery.
If you have any questions, please contact Frank Bateman, Location Coordinator, at 413-949-6517.
