If you take a stroll around Christmas you’ll see wreaths adorning gates and doors like you’ve never seen before! From one made of ice to another with brass sailing ships, from a NO SKATEBOARDING sign, to matching guitars (or guitar picks,) you can put just about anything in a wreath if it fits.<\/p>\n
This week for just 15 bucks you can sponsor a wreath for someone else in the honor of their service to the U.S.<\/p>\n
The annual Wreaths Across America on Saturday, December 16, 2017 is a ceremony at over 50 cemeteries in California and hundreds nationwide. Only a few cemeteries (such as Sacramento Valley National Cemetery in Dixon) have actually fulfilled their goal of providing a wreath for every military grave. Some in California this year are at a paltry 1 percent of their goal while small cemeteries such as Guadalupe’s Cemetery District with 14 military graves appear to have met their mark of an evergreen wreath with a red bow for every grave stone for a veteran who has passed.<\/p>\n
