Editor’s note: Not all Legionnaires are physically able to place flags across the burial grounds. Younger volunteer groups will work quickly. Jerry Brearton submitted this press release.
In preparation for Memorial Day ceremonies, the American Legion Post in Morrison, IL, will install flags on the graves of Veterans buried in Grove Hill Cemetery, on Saturday, May 22, 2021, at 7:00 a.m. Volunteers are much needed to assist. We will meet at the Grove Hill Maintenance Shed and be disbursed from there.
With enough helpers, this patriotic task usually takes a little over an hour.
Questions can be directed to the American Legion Post at 815-310-0333.
