Brunswick Town Dar Chapter Wreaths Across America Chair 

 Let's try very hard in the next 2 months to buy more wreaths. Go to the Wreaths Across America tab at the top of this blog and click on it. There you will find information to help you purchase a wreath. Our WAA chair is available at the October and November meetings to take checks to purchase wreaths. You can also buy wreaths by credit card and by calling WAA and give them your e-mail address. You will receive an e-mail receipt. It is very important that you forward that e-mail to our WAA chair so she can keep track of the purchases.

Any problems with purchasing a wreath online contact the blog manager. Her info is in the yearbook and at the top of the blog.

We hope all 181 DAR members will buy a wreath for Wreaths Across America. As of October 1, 2021 we have 25 wreaths purchased from our chapter.
