Description
Having existed for over 30 years, the ceremony pays tribute to the dedication and sacrifices the men and women of our Nation’s Armed Forces have made. Every Memorial Day, the City of La Palma honors their service in defense of our freedom and their sacrifice for Liberty throughout the world.
The Community Activities and Beautification Committee would like to recognize ALL veterans, from past wars to the current conflict, for their service and willingness to defend our American way of life. Please join us on Monday, May 27 at 9:00 a.m. in front of City Hall so we can thank you for service.
The Community Activities & Beautification Committee is collecting items for a Military Care Package and letters to be sent to troops serving overseas. Support our troops by donating personal hygiene products, and/or other needed and wanted items. The full list of requested items is located at the Community Services Office. Donations will be collected starting in May at the Community Center and at the Memorial Day Ceremony.
The Community Activities and Beautification (CAB) Committee is creating a historical registry of La Palma Community members who have served or are currently serving in the United States Military. If you would like to be a part of this registry or want to honor a friend or family member, come by the Community Services Department to pick up a form or email the La Palma Military Registry Form to janella@cityoflapalma.org.
