Volunteer Opportunity



Looking for a way to honor fallen veterans during this Memorial Day Weekend?  Check out the following volunteer opportunity on Sunday, May 25th at the Florida National Cemetery in nearby Bushnell, FL:

FLORIDA NATIONAL CEMETERY IS THE FINAL RESTING PLACE OF OVER 120,000 VETERANS AND THEIR SPOUSES. IT IS ALSO 1 OF ONLY 10 NATIONAL CEMETERIES (OUT OF 131)  IN OUR COUNTRY THAT DOES NOT HAVE INDIVIDUAL AMERICAN FLAGS PLACED UPON EACH GRAVE SITE FOR MEMORIAL DAY. THIS IS THROUGH NO FAULT OF THE CEMETERIES. THE VA DOES NOT PLACE INDIVIDUAL FLAGS AT ANY NATIONAL CEMETERY. (EVEN ARLINGTON NATIONAL). IT IS ALL DONE THROUGH COMMUNITY SUPPORT AND VOLUNTEERISM.

OUR MISSION FOR MEMORIAL WEEKEND 2014 IS TO PLACE OVER 120,000 FLAGS ON SUNDAY MAY 25, 2014 BEGINNING AT 9AM. WITH YOUR SUPPORT, VOLUNTEERISM AND PATRIOTISM THIS WILL BECOME A REALITY. ONCE DONE FLAGS WILL BE PLACED EACH YEAR GOING FORWARD. CORPORATE AND PRIVATE TEAMS ARE WELCOME
