Memorial Weekend Activities

Memorial Day may be the unofficial start of summer, but most importantly, it's the day we remember the men and women who died while serving in our country's armed forces.  You and your scout have several opportunities this Memorial Day weekend to show respect to those brave soldiers.

Operation Flag will take place on May 27th at 8.30 AM at Union Cemetery (the West side).  Scouts will gather for a short, but moving ceremony before placing flags at the headstones of veterans in the cemetery.



PLEASE WEAR FULL UNIFORM FOR THIS EVENT!

Another fun opportunity for your scout is marching in the Worthington Memorial Parade on Memorial Day itself. Patrick Long will be sending out an email with more information on this event.
