Wreaths Across America (WAA) is a non-profit organization that aims to honor deceased veterans through the placement of live balsam wreaths on their headstones. Wreaths will be placed as part of National Wreaths Across America in March. Veterans, active-duty military, family members, and the public is invited to join and tour a Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit to share stories. The goal of the WAA’s mobile exhibit is to remember vets’ service and sacrifice, says Karen Worcester, executive director of WAA. The WAA tour is stopping at three Mississippi locations during its Mobile Education National Tour: Jackson, March 25, at Jackson Academy from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 4908 Ridgeland Road; Madison, March 26, at Liberty Park from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at 810 Madison Avenue; and Corinth, March 29, at The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 6 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 511 South Tate Street.
