Take the time this three-day weekend to remember the reason why our country celebrates Memorial Day in the first place. Around Garfield County there are a number of different ceremonial proceedings taking place that the public is invited to attend.
Glenwood Springs’ American Legion Post 83 event
At 4 p.m. Friday, the Glenwood Springs’ American Legion Post 83 is seeking volunteers to help with the flag posting ceremony at the Rosebud Cemetery. They’ll be working with the Noon Rotary Club to post more than 500 flags on the graves of fallen veterans. To participate, volunteers should meet by the brick building near the cemetery, and for more information, or if you have questions, Dan E. Levan can be contacted at 970-618-1910.
