A bit of background information on our involvement with Wreaths Across America. We have participated in this annual event since our inception. We have been a sponsorship group for the past six years. Many remote family and friends rely on us to place Wreaths on the graves of their loved ones. On December 17th, we were involved in the placement of over 300 Grave Specific Wreaths. For every Wreath that is sponsored through our group, we receive $5.00 from Wreaths Across America. This year we received $625.00. This has historically been a significant fund raising event for our Organization. Great appreciation for our members who sponsor and assist in placing and removing Wreaths, for this very important and honorable event.
Through January 17, 2023, any Wreaths ordered through a Sponsorship Group will be matched by Wreaths Across America. This will be a great opportunity to get a fast start on Wreath Day, 2023 (December 16th). Following is the link to the Patriot Guard Riders of Colorado Sponsorship Group:
