Governor Jared Irwin Chapter NSDAR members have been busy the past several weeks. The week before Labor Day, banners went up around town. Members are visiting businesses to place information about Wreaths Across America and how to purchase wreaths. They are also speaking with business owners about donations to our project to help with the cost of the Veterans Remembrance Book, flags for cemeteries to mark Veterans graves, to purchase wreaths for Veterans who no longer have family in the area, and other things we do for our project.




Thank you to the Washington County Chamber of Commerce and the Rosa M. Tarbutton Memorial Library for allowing us to have displays for our Wreaths Across America project and giving a shout out to us on Facebook.
