What does Memorial Day mean to you? Community volunteers are needed to help honor the more than 9,000 veterans buried at Lake View Cemetery by placing American flags at their graves. 
 
Ruth Severiens from the Heights of Greater Cleveland Club is organizing a service project to help place flags on graves of veterans at Lake View Cemetery. This will take place from 1:00 to 4:00 pm on Friday May 27, 2022. Lake View Cemetery is located 12316 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, 44106 (close to Little Italy). 
 
All are welcome and families are encouraged. This would also be a way to get to know Rotarians from other clubs. Opportunity for socializing at a local establishment afterwards.
