CT Veterans Cemetery Flag Retrieval
Thank you to everyone that assisted in placing Flags last Saturday at the CT. Veterans Cemetery in Middletown.
Your assistance is again needed PLEASE !!!!
FLAG RETRIEVAL IS ON FOR THIS SATURDAY, 11/15/25.
YOUR HELP IS NEEDED TO RETRIEVE THE FLAGS THAT WERE PLACED TO HONOR OUR VETERANS THAT ARE NO LONGER WITH US TO SHOW THAT THEY ARE “NOT FORGOTTEN” FOR THEIR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!!!
On Saturday, November 15, 2025, starting at 9:00am at the CT. State Veterans Cemetery located on Bow Lane in Middletown, approximately 13,700 American Flags will be retrieved and preserved for future use to Honor our Veterans.
Retrieval of the Flags is weather permitting as we are unable to store the flags if they are wet and as of now it appears that there are no issues with rain or snow. The rain/snow date, if needed, will be Saturday, November 22nd, 2025 at 9:00 AM.
Veteran groups, Scout Troops, Youth Groups, Public, Community Organizations, and all that have assisted all these years in honoring and remembering those Veterans who served our Country are welcome to show their sacrifices are “NOT FORGOTTEN”.
Please come out and support us and our Veterans and say THANK YOU for all they have done.
ALSO, donations will be collected for Wreaths Across America Wreaths that will be placed on December 13, 2025 at 12:00 pm (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony). Last year we met our goal of Remembrance Wreaths that were available to be placed on the final resting place of those Veterans allowed to receive one.
The cost of purchasing a Wreath is $17.00 per Wreath. The final day for orders is December 1st to make sure Wreaths are delivered in time for placement at the Veterans Cemetery this year.
As of today, 11/12/25
