2020-2021

Key Dates, Times, and Locations

Please note: We are working with state and local officials to develop courses of action in case crowd restrictions due to COVID-19 are still in effect during this year’s wreath events. We will update our website and Facebook page when changes are made. As volunteers will be working within the recommended social distance of 6 feet from others, everyone should plan on wearing a mask.
