Memory Tree ceremony set for next Thursday

Next Thursday will be the annual Memory Tree ceremony.

Each Christmas season, this celebration is put on by parents and supporters of Washakie County Special Olympics. This is a fundraiser in which a person’s name can be placed on an ornament that is hung on the large evergreen tree at Pioneer Square.

For a small monetary donation to Special Olympics, a name can be placed in memory of a loved one who has passed on or in honor of someone living who holds a special place in your heart. An invitation can be sent to one person per order to let them know about the special ceremony where all the names are read aloud. The program will be at 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 16 at the Washakie Community Center Complex conference room. Refreshments will be provided.

Order forms are available at Rocky Mountain Framing, Bryant Funeral Home, Big Horn Federal Bank and O.W.L. Unlimited.
