For the second consecutive year, The Colony Club of Ocean City honored the service of area veterans by placing wreaths on graves at the Gerald M. Thornton Veterans Cemetery of Cape May County.
Each December, the Wreaths Across America organization asks local groups to remember and honor veterans by conducting wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 2,100 additional locations in all 50 states.
“The Colony Club was pleased to again have the opportunity to join a grateful nation in saying ‘thank you’ to our veterans,” said Cathy Solarski, chair of her club’s Wreaths Across America committee.
She added, “Our members, along with members from The Exchange Club of Ocean City and American Legion Post 524 Auxiliary, donated thousands of dollars and sponsored 195 wreaths, which were combined with additional wreaths from other local organizations.”.
