LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Community members are invited to attend wreath-laying ceremonies at local cemeteries on Saturday morning that will honor the men and women who have served the country in the military.

The ceremonies are part of the annual Wreaths Across America commemoration, as Lake County News has reported.

The courage and sacrifice of our military veterans should never be forgotten.

You can show them your appreciation and gratitude when citizens across the country come together to remember the fallen, honor those who serve and teach our children the value of freedom.

The ceremonies will take place at 8:50 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 15, at the Hartley, Kelseyville, Upper Lake, Lower Lake and St. Mary’s cemeteries.

This year’s theme is “Be Their Witness.” You’ll be joining fellow patriots as they say their names and show support for their families.

The truck being driven by volunteer veterans will be delivering wreaths to all of the cemeteries where ceremonies will be held on Friday morning.

Watch for the truck – it will stand out as it is escorted through Lakeport and Kelseyville.
