Following the National Anthem and Pledge there will then be the presentation of the seven ceremonial wreaths by either active or veteran servicemen. Following this will be a speech by Nicole Pelletier and other potential representatives from the town. Then we will begin laying the wreaths. Wreaths will be provided based on the amount of funds that have been raised. Please come and bring your whole family. This is a wonderful way to start off your holiday season and an excellent way to honor those who have served. Light refreshments and snacks will be available.
