Placing Flags on Veterans Graves

For Memorial Day

 

Students who put up

the flags on the gravesites of

our departed veterans!

Legion Volunteers Welcome

 

As in the past two years, approx. 30 students from Oak Hill Middle School will be placing flags on the veteran’s graves at the Plains Cemetery in Litchfield and Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Sabattus.

 

The students are due to arrive at Pleasant Hill between 10:30-11am. We will need legionnaires to help distribute the flags and markers to the students and assist with the placing of the flags.

 

I will be at the cemetery by 10:30 with the flags and markers.

 

There are around 300 flags to place; we are usually done within an hour.

 

Uniform for this event is your legion cover.
