Wreaths Across America Deadline is November 25, 2016

You can order a wreath on line for Wreaths Across America or mail a check if you have a form. Be sure to make out the check to Wreaths Across America. The deadline to order all wreaths is November 25th. We don’t have much time, but if you are a last minute person the on line ordering is your fastest way to do it. Hope we can order 5,000 wreaths this year. There is a typo on line with our Brunswick Town name, which I have let them know about. The number NC0009P is correct, so I am sure we will get credit for each order.
