This was Poulsbo Municipal Cemetery's first year of participating in Wreaths Across America.
Thank you to all the
wonderful volunteers for the success we had this year. If you are
interested in helping with this kick off for next year, Poulsbo Noon
Lions Club is a fund-raising group (WA0142P). wreathsacrossamerica.org/WA0142P
At noon today Wreaths Across America was at the cemetery to remember and honor our veterans through the laying of
"Remembrance Wreaths" on the graves of our fallen heroes. Lion Linda
Schwind (red coat below) organized the event today with the Poulsbo Veterans
of Foreign Wars, Post 2463, the Rotary Club of Poulsbo-North Kitsap, and
the Poulsbo American Legion, Post 245. These veterans groups, scouts,
four other Lions (Joyce Smith, Steve Calhoun, Karl Ostheller and Harlan
Knudsen), and two North Kitsap Leos (Michael and Shelby) helped place
the wreaths. The Leos also paid for 5 of the wreaths.
