Description

URGENT NOTICE…. We will have to postpone the event scheduled for this Saturday due to the amount of snow on the ground and the pending snow storm forecasted for next Saturday. For the safety of the volunteers, we will reschedule the wreath collection for Saturday, February 1st at Noon.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

We need volunteers to help pick up wreaths that were placed on the graves of our Veterans.

The wreaths are a perishable product, made from live balsam, and can have residual sap on them. Work gloves will help protect your hands during the pick up.

A TIP.... You should also bring a snow shovel or broomstick to string wreaths on to help with transporting them to the disposal area.

Pre-filled SSL forms will be handed out at the event for you to complete.

Student participation in this service project is at the discretion of the student’s parent/guardian  and must be completed outside of school hours. The nonprofit organization is responsible for maintaining student safety. Parents/guardians should contact the nonprofit directly with any questions and/or concerns.
