Come out and help place flags by the gravesites of 1,000's of American Military Veterans who risked and gave their lives to keep freedom alive. There will be a service of remembrance for our fallen soldiers preceding the placement of American flags. Parents and siblings are encouraged to participate in this very special and moving ceremony. A commemorative pin is issued to each participant registered.

We will meet at CUMC at 8:15 am. Drivers are needed. We will return to CUMC around noon.
