Adopt
a Cemetery Program
 Anyone who wants to express their appreciation for the sacrifices
made by our veterans has the opportunity to do so through
the Adopt a Cemetery Program.
Each year near Memorial Day over 2500 small flags on placed
on veteran's graves by various groups. These include various patriotic
organizations and groups such as Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. Even some
families volunteer together.
Many families say it a wonderful history lesson for their
children and look forward to it each year. Some of the Scout groups have
broken up, yet the leaders continue doing it with their families.
The flags are placed on the graves the Wednesday before Memorial
Day and removed by the Wednesday after. The flags, maps, and list of
names are furnished for you, so all you need to supply is the time.
If there are groups or families that would be interested
in being a part of the Adopt a Cemetery Program, please contact
Chairman Carolyn Hansen at .
