Memorial Day weekend is so much more than the start of summer. It is our opportunity to honor those who gave their lives in service to our country.
Troop 701 is again partnering with the Strongsville VFW to place flags by the graves of each veteran buried at the Strongsville Cemetery. This year, we are asking families to volunteer for an hour of time to work together to place flags in an assigned section of the cemetery. Your family will be assigned a list of veterans, and will receive a map and a bundle of flags delivered to your house. Since your family will be the only one assigned to a section at a time, you should be able to complete this service project while observing all social distancing precautions. Scouts will receive service hours credit for this activity.
If you want to help, you must sign up for a volunteer shift on TroopWebHost by this Tuesday night, May 19.
If you have any questions, or have any difficulty signing up, please text or call Laura at 440-821-2445.
Thank you for helping us remember our fallen heroes.
