The ceremony at The Old Burying Ground, one of Clinton’s most historic resting places, will include a brief program featuring remarks from local officials, veterans, and community leaders. Volunteers will then lay wreaths on the graves of veterans spanning multiple generations of service, paying tribute to their courage, sacrifice, and dedication.
