BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — A mobile education exhibit honoring those who have served our country made a stop in Bakersfield on Tues, Feb 21.
The Wreaths Across America Project aims to remember the fallen and teach the next generation the value of freedom. It did so in Bakersfield so by bringing the local community together for an interactive exhibit that shares the stories of military heroes.
"This is an opportunity to let more families know just what it is that these individuals have given up for their country," said Susie Marthesini, Chairperson of Resources for the Daughters of the American Revolution.
Thanks to help from the Bakersfield chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, visitors were able to stop by and see the exhibit firsthand in Downtown Bakersfield.
