Brattleboro, Vermont. On Wednesday May 6, 2015 from 4:00-6:00 PM, Brattleboro Area Hospice will offer an opportunity for people to make a remembrance flag to honor someone who has died. Creating a Remembrance Flag can be a valuable commemoration activity to help individuals with grief. Children are welcome as long as they are accompanied by a responsible adult. No special talent is needed, and all materials will be provided. The flags will hang at the Hospice Memorial Garden on Guilford Street during the coming year, though participants are welcome to take their flag home with them if they prefer.
This event will take place at Brattleboro Area Hospice, 191 Canal St., Brattleboro. Judy Van Wageningen and Connie Baxter will facilitate. We would appreciate an RSVP call to 257-0775 x104 so we can be sure to have enough materials and work space. There is no charge for this event.
