Celtic Festival 2025 - in the books.
Is was an honor and a privilege to be asked back again this year! The weather was perfect and lots of great things to do! With great pride, Barbara McSpadden, Mary Smith, Amy Pegues, Kristine Wright, Leia Hatzenbihler, and Lynn Campbell volunteered at our booth to help promote our chapter and our work with Wreaths Across America at 5 local wise county cemeteries. We were also asked to judge the shortbread contest again this year. Thank you Mrs. Wright, Amy, Kristine Leia, and Mary to help with the judging. It was a fun day. If you’d like to help us honor a locally buried veteran at Aurora, Oaklawn, Paradise, Pleasant Grove l or Sweetwater Cemetery, please sponsor a wreath by going to our sponsorship page https://bit.ly/JBDwreaths

Yesterday we retired wreaths at Oaklawn Cemetery. It was very cold but the sun was shining. A huge shout out to Kathy Silvey and her Hodar, Carl for doing the whole top section of the cemetery the day before and also a huge shout out to Olivia Black for going out to do another section because she couldn’t be with us on Saturday. And another shout out to all those that braved the cold to help us retire the wreaths, Wise Veterans Group and our DAR chapter had a great showing. More pictures to follow. Anyone that was there please post your pictures in the comments or send to me and I’ll edit the post to add your pictures. Wishing everyone a very blessed week🙏
