Description
At 8:00 AM on Saturday, May 25th, our youth in volunteer organizations will sponsor a Memorial Day Service Flag Placement at Crownsville Veterans Cemetery located on Sunrise Beach Road in Crownsville, MD.
Boys and Girls in Scouts BSA, Girl Scouts, 4H, and Young Marines, as well as participants from other organizations, will place flags starting at 8:30am after the memorial service. Guest speakers include the Riverhawk District Chairman and The American Legion.
The gates will not open before 7:30 AM. That is the cemetery requirement. We must wait for their staff to be in place before we enter. We start the Ceremony promptly at 8:00 AM with the invocation and ceremony. Flag placement begins at 8:30 AM.
There is plenty of time to park and get to the ceremony before it starts. Please do not park on the grass on Sunrise Beach or in cemetery. It is extremely important that attendees do not park on Sunrise Beach Road. The county police do not want us parking on the main street. And they may give tickets to those that do. Safety is our first concern. Sunrise Beach Road is a main road and we do not want anyone to get hurt.
