REMEMBER the fallen . . . HONOR those who serve . . . TEACH our children the value of freedom.
On Saturday, December 15, 2018 at 12:00 PM, the Mat-Su Composite Squadron - Civil Air Patrol (AK0017P) will be helping Fort Richardson National Cemetery to remember and honor our veterans by laying remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes.
Please help us honor and remember as many fallen heroes as possible, by sponsoring remembrance wreaths. With each wreath sponsored, the Mat-Su Composite Squadron will receive $5 towards our cadet program for youth 12-18 years of age.
So, what does it mean to sponsor a wreath? It means you have the opportunity to join a grateful nation in saying “thank you” to our veterans.
We can’t do that without your support, though. Your sponsorship will ensure that a wreath is handcrafted of all-American balsam and hand-tied with a red velvet bow. A cadet volunteer will place the wreath on the marker of a fallen hero. That cadet will then “say their name”, to ensure that the legacy of duty, service, and sacrifice of that veteran is never forgotten.
Number of wreaths to sponsor:
- 1 Wreath Individual Sponsorship ($15)
- 2 Wreaths ($30.00)
- 5 Wreaths ($75.00) *Most Popular*
- 10 Wreaths ($150.00)
- Custom Number of Wreaths
Thank you so much for supporting the Mat-Su Composite Squadron - Civil Air Patrol (AK0017P) and Wreaths Across America!
