1) Wreaths For America: (Approx around Dec 15th) SAMFSN participates in this event every year. Since 2015 we have been participating at the Baltimore National Cemetery rather than at Arlington Cemetery. We invite families to lay wreaths and flowers on grave stones of fallen soldiers. Since we always don't have seem to have enough wreaths we request families to bring roses to lay at the grave stones once the wreaths run out so that we can cover as many grave stones as we can. Please send an email to support@ samfsn.org. If you want to help out as a volunteer or participate in this event as a family. Age Limit: From 10 years  and over. Each volunteer will get 4 hours of SSL. This community service will be provided at the Baltimore National Cemetery
