The trucks haven't left Maine yet! Keep the wreath sponsorships coming in!

I really don't want to explain to families, friends, our cemetery staff or the public why a Veteran's monument at Sarasota National Cemetery did NOT receive a wreath!

Wreaths Across America ("WAA") coordinates wreath-laying ceremonies every December to "Remember, Honor, and Teach" about the sacrifices made by our veterans and their families.
