Wreaths across America

Saturday, Dec. 19, at 11 a.m. at the City Cemetery on North Main there will be the Sixth Annual Wreaths Across America Ceremony. 

The Sons of the American Revolution have returned as the sponsor for the event this year. There will be a short ceremony conducted by the master of ceremonies with a few speakers, including SAR Sargent at Arms Jack Anderson. Fort Rucker Garrison Commander Whitney B. Gardner will be the keynote speaker this year and will talk on the general theme of Wreaths Across America regarding remembering our fallen U.S. veterans, honoring those who serve and ensuring our children know the value of freedom.
