Honor Guard at State Capitol for NSDAR Wreaths Across America

The State of Georgia will have a ceremony at Noon for the opening of Wreaths Across America Week in conjunction with the Georgia State Society National Society Daughters of the American Revolution at the State Capitol in Atlanta.

The Georgia Society SAR Color Guard has been asked to provide an Honor Guard for the Presentation of Colors and Retirement of Colors.  We can have as many flag bearers as we can muster.

PLEASE NOTE that since this event is at the state capitol NO muskets, rifle, or edged weapons will be allowed.

Since the Legislature is not in Session there should be parking available around the State Capitol.  Street parking might be available.

The following web address will take you to the Public Parking areas located around the Capitol.

My plans are to park at the Steve Polk Parking Lot located at 65 Marin Luther King, Jr. Drive, Atlanta, GA which is located by Elite Parking and is also referred to as The Freight Depot Parking area. for this lot you will need a credit/debit card and you must know you tag number when you punch your information into the kiosk.

if you think you are coming PLEAE LET ME KNOW ASAP.  We can have as many as can attend I need to make sure to have enough flags.

Please attend if it is at all possible.

One Wreaths Across America event can be counted as a National Society SAR National Color Guard Event with any others counted as a state or chapter event as appropriate.
