As part of the Wreaths Across America campaign, the Lions Club will lay wreaths on the graves of 245 Norfolk veterans on Saturday, December 13. It is seeking assistance in placing the wreaths on the veterans’ resting places.
A starting ceremony will be held at St. Mary’s Cemetery at noon.
Lions Club member Sandy Evans said the club is buying the wreaths, which cost $17, but is seeking donations to help defray the cost. Checks can be made out to Wreaths Across America and left at the National Iron Bank.
The Lions will receive a portion of each donation that can be used to help funds the club’s local charitable activities.
Anyone who would like to volunteer to help place the wreaths should call Sandy Evans at 860-866-7923.
