In support of Wreaths Across America, we are kindly asking for donations to raise funds for our upcoming trip to Arlington National Cemetery in December. This is an incredible experience for the Scouts and any assistance we can get goes a long way to ensure this is a trip we can make every year in honor of our Veterans.

Your participation in supporting our fundraising efforts is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
