Wreaths Across America Wrapup

Posted at 08:33 AM on Monday, December 15, 2008 by post296

Wreaths adorn gravesites at Arlington National Cemetary

The Worcester Wreath Company from Harrington, Maine, has donated about 90,000 wreaths for the program since its president, Morrill Worcester, started the annual tradition in 1992. Working with the National Cemetery Administration and a bevy of volunteers, the company has made balsam fir wreaths with bright red bows to adorn every headstone at Arlington.

The "Wreaths Across America" program expanded this year to over 350 locations around the country.
