Wreaths Across America ceremony held at Bath National Cemetery

The Leader BATH - Usually, around 400 to 550 people lay wreaths in honor of veterans at the annual Wreaths Across America event held at Bath National Cemetery. This year, however, the event closed to the public and confined to just a ceremony to honor veterans with the wreath laying being pushed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although it was limited to just 10 people, officials felt it important to still hold a traditional pre-wreath laying ceremony to honor veterans even if it didn t include the traditional wreath laying afterwards. “I think the importance is still to recognize veterans,” said Tom Dowd, Bath WAA Co-Coordinator. “We couldn’t recognize every grave based on our decision, but we could at least recognize the veterans buried in the cemetery by having a ceremony.”

Wreaths Across America ceremony set in Anna | The Gazette-Democrat

Thu, 12/17/2020 - 4:54pm admin The Wreaths Across America mission to Remember, Honor, Teach, is the foundation behind all the organizations efforts.  Throughout the year, local volunteers have been tirelessly working to make certain that families, loved ones and heroes get honored and remembered for the holidays.  However, the challenge was doing so in a way that is consistent with safety and in compliance with local COVID-19 recommendations and mandates.  Anna City Commissioner Martha Ann Webb has made it a clear priority to try to get every veteran in the Anna City Cemetery a wreath. To insure the continuance of this year’s program in the Anna City Cemetery, modifications have been made to ensure the continuance of National Wreaths Across America Day, which is planned at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 19 –  and more importantly to show the families of the nation’s heroes just how much their ultimate sacrifice is appreciated.
