Special Information:

This is a rain or shine event so please monitor the weather and dress appropriately. Park only on one side of the road so as not to block traffic. DSNY truck will be on site at 9:30. Place wreath bundles at edge of row to ensure quick pick up. Volunteers who helped with the ceremonial wreaths will be allowed to take them home. Do NOT take the stands. There will be no formal speeches so I am estimating we will be done by or before 10:30. No Port a San will be available. Wear gloves and bring poles or carts to help with the pick up. This is a team effort. NJROTC from Benjamin Cardoza will take care of the wreaths at the top of the hill. Thank You all for your continued support and dedication to this mission.
