(BENTON, Ky.)-The Benton Woman’s Club has announced plans to participate in the national Wreaths Across America initiative, hosting a ceremony in Marshall County this December.
The event will take place on December 13, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., beginning with a small ceremony at Mike Miller Park Veteran’s Honor Plaza. Following the opening ceremony, volunteers will lay wreaths across Marshall County to honor American heroes.
