Many hands and hearts come together each year to honor our Veterans over the holidays
The Maine State Society
of Washington D.C. has been involved with the Arlington Wreath project since its inception. Established in 1894 as a "home away from home" for displaced Mainers "to foster and promote interest in Maine, develop and maintain a sense of loyalty and devotion to Maine, and provide for and strengthen the social contacts of its members."

Civil Air Patrol
has over 65,000 volunteer members nationwide who donate their time and resources to train for disaster relief, emergency services, cadet programs and aerospace education for the public. Civil Air Patrol officers and cadets have been involved with Worcester Wreath for several years in decorating and laying wreaths in Arlington National Cemetery. When Morrill and Karen Worcester decided to take this project nationwide, the Civil Air Patrol accepted the challenge.

Blue Bird Ranch
has donated the trucking transportation of wreaths from Harrington, Maine to Arlington National Cemetery since 1992. Drivers and their families have also participated in the ceremony and wreath-laying.
