along the Grant Avenue side of Memorial Park (near the corner of Grant
Avenue & Fairmont).
The public is invited to join BCHS members on Sunday, November 8th at 1:00 pm for this brief wreath laying ceremony and to share the names of their ancestors and friends who served during World War ll.
Attendees are required to wear face masks and maintain social distancing. This event is subject to change. Visit BergenCountyHistory.org for more information and updates.
