Join this grassroot effort to lay 2500 holiday wreaths on the grave sites at the Gloucester County Veterans Memorial Cemetery on December 2nd, 2017. Family members of those buried at the cemetery are asked to be at the site by 9:00 am for a private ceremony and reception. They will then be given a wreath to place on the grave site of their family members.
Volunteers are asked to be at the site by 9:30 am to attend the opening ceremony at 10:00 am and then place wreaths on the balance of the graves after the ceremony. All family and volunteers are asked to park at the Williamstown High School parking lot at 700 North Tuckahoe Road and take the shuttles to the cemetery. ONLY Handicap parking allowed at the cemetery. Must have Handicap plates or hang tag on car. Shuttles start running at 7:30 am from the High School parking lot.
