Wreaths of Remembrance ~ this Saturday at Hesky Park, Meredith
The Blue Star Mothers of NH will be once again holding the Wreaths of Remembrance ceremonies in their communities across the state at their town's War Memorial.
The Blue Star Mothers in the Lakes Region will be holding the Wreaths of Remembrance on December 7, 2013 at 11:00 in front of the POW/MIA Memorial in Hesky Park, Meredith, NH. All are welcome to attend.
The wreath(s) represent our commitment as a United America to remember the fallen. This holiday wreath symbolizes our respect to all Military Personnel, both past and present, and to their families who have endured sacrifices everyday on our behalf. To our children, we want you to understand the freedoms you enjoy today have not been free but have come with a cost that someday, you may have to pay yourself. As a nation standing together, we can defeat terrorism, hatred and injustice. Thanks to our Veterans, we have the freedom to do just that.
This year the Christmas Wreath laying is to raise awareness of POW Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, American POW being held captive in Afghanistan at this time and a way of letting his family know that they do not wait alone. We are asking that you send a Christmas card to Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, The White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC 2050 and to Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, c/o American Red Cross, 2025 E Street NW, Washington DC 2006. The message should be short and positive..suggestion "Blessings, we wait for your safe return".
