Memorial Day and Poppies

We would like to invite you to the
Spanish Fork Cemetery on Thursday, May 26th at 3pm
to place poppies on the white crosses that are placed there in remembrance of our fallen soldiers from the area. This is a great opportunity of service.

We will also be giving you each poppies while you are at the cemetery to distribute the weekend of Memorial Day. We, as a an organization, ask for contributions from those who we distribute poppies to. We do not sell the poppies. Can you buy and sell freedom and the sacrifice of our soldiers? If people ask you how much they are you can ask how much their freedom is worth!

Our poppies are made by our disabled veterans and all contributions go back to them. We need all of you to distribute poppies. Before you get on the bus for Girls State we will need all the money back in.
