Wreaths Across America returns to the Millsboro veterans cemetery Dec. 19. Sponsors are needed.
Wreaths 4 Millsboro has about 30% of the wreaths it needs for the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery.
National Wreaths Across America Day is Saturday, Dec. 19, and volunteers will lay wreaths on veterans' graves at the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery, 26669 Patriots Way, Millsboro.
The local group, Wreaths 4 Millsboro, had 1,513 wreaths sponsored, about 30% of its goal, when we checked its sponsorship page. You can sponsor a wreath or sign up to help lay them there. The page lists two different start times, so check it before you go.
The cemetery is open every day, dawn to dusk. (Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery)
Tell us about your veteran
Our Veterans Day special edition comes out Tuesday, and we want it full of Sussex County veterans. Tell us about your veteran, or your town's veterans: a parent, grandparent, neighbor, coach or friend.
Send us:
- Their name, branch and when they served
- Their town in Sussex County
- A few sentences about them, in your words
- A photo, if you have one and they're OK with us running it
Send it with our Tell us form by Monday, Nov. 9, at 5 p.m., or email it to [email protected] with "My veteran" in the subject line. It's free, and every veteran we can confirm gets a place in the edition.
