On Saturday, December 14th, more than 4,600 locations across the United States will be honoring veterans with Wreaths Across America. This is the first year that the Shawnee Cemetery will be the site of one of the ceremonies to honor those men and women who served our country. Thanks to donations from businesses and individuals, they will have nearly 600 wreaths they are going to place on the veterans' gravesites. During every ceremony nationwide this weekend, the goal is the same.
