The Vincennes Kiwanis and Vincennes Rotary Clubs are teaming up again this year to keep the Wreaths Across America program in Vincennes. The goal of the Vincennes service clubs is to place a wreath at the graves of all veterans buried in the Vincennes City Cemeteries. Wreaths are $15 each and can be purchased by individuals or businesses. Individuals are welcome to attend the program on December 17th, then take their wreaths for personal placement at the graves of their friends and relatives. A joint committee comprised of members from both Kiwanis and Rotary is also seeking donations from area businesses so that the remaining grave sites of veterans will also have a remembrance wreath during the holidays. Volunteers are also being sought to help distribute wreaths that day. Order forms are available at various locations in Vincennes, including the Vincennes Water Department office at 403 Busseron. To order online, go to Wreaths Across America.org or visit the local group’s Facebook page – Wreaths for Knox County.
