We also thank the Paulding Sheriff\u2019s Department, Paulding High School FFA, Boy Scout Troop 315 for saying the pledge and laying wreaths, the Girl Scouts and everyone else who came out to lay wreaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are ever amazed at the support we receive from the community and the outstanding job you have done. We had a total of 774 wreaths this year and look forward to growing bigger next year. This year\u2019s slogan was \u201cBe an American worth fighting for\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From December 19, 2020 &#8211; January 15, 2021 Wreaths Across America will match any donation we receive. Wreaths Across America\u2019s core mission is Remember, Honor, and Teach.
