Honor a local veteran by sponsoring a wreath for Wreaths Across America Day

National Wreaths Across America Day is set to take place December 18, 2021, with events nationally and locally planned to honor and teach about our veterans.

The opportunity to sponsor a wreath to honor a local American hero at Oakland Cemetery in Warren is going on right now. Event organizers say that $15 will ensure that a wreath is laid that is hand-crafted of all-American balsam and hand-tied with a red velvet bow.

If you are interested in sponsoring a wreath this December, call 870-820-0310.
