"Walk of Honor" unveiling at Bardsdale Cemetery’s Memorial Day Services
By Anonymous — Wednesday, May 25th, 2011
The “Walk of Honor” will be officially unveiled during Bardsdale Cemetery’s Memorial Day Services. Boy Scout Sean Chandler recently completed his Eagle Project at the cemetery. His project included replacing the flagpole’s asphalt walkway with bricks engraved with the names of veterans. This walkway is used each year during the Memorial Day service and is now truly befitting the honor to which veterans deserve. The community is invited to the unveiling on Monday, May 30th at 11:00 a.m. at Bardsdale Cemetery. In recognition of the completion of the “Walk of Honor”, refreshments will be served after the service. Sean would like to thank the community of Fillmore for supporting his Eagle Project with the purchase of engraved bricks for veterans and to all the volunteers who worked on his project, especially those of Pack 3400 and Troop 406. Special thanks go to Fillmore Rentals, Fillmore Building Supply, Vulcan Materials Company of Oxnard and especially to Santa Barbara Monumental for donating the beautiful granite monument. More importantly, this project could not have proceeded without the encouragement and financial support of the Bardsdale Cemetery Board. |
