Ball High students practice for Wreaths Across America


Ball High School’s Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps cadets have been
practicing drill and ceremony before a Wreaths Across America event
Saturday. The color guard and drill team will return to Lakeview Cemetery
for the event’s second year.
Lakeview is among the latest to participate in National Wreaths Across
America Day, an event celebrated annually across the United States to
recognize and honor veterans. More than 1,500 locations will be
participating in the event.
The La Marque Cemetery Board raised money to place wreaths on the
headstones of veterans buried at La Marque Cemetery and Rising Star
Cemetery. League City will also be hosting Wreaths Across America at
Fairview Cemetery. Both events begin at 11 a.m.
