Sappington Commemorative Event

Sappington Commemorative Event

Attendees: 4 members (3 peewees), 2 seniors

Members were invited by the Sappington DAR to join a joint commemorative event with the Sappington DAR and Spirit of St. Louis SAR. Members helped guide guests to their seats, passed out programs, and helped participate in the wreath laying ceremony. There are three revolutionary ancestors buried at Sappington Cemetery. This event honored each of them. One DAR, SAR, and C.A.R. participated as an honor guard to assist a descendant in placing a wreath at their ancestor's grave.

Contest Connections:
