All of the scholars took a train to Washington, DC, to be a part of the "Laying of the Wreaths Ceremony" at Arlington National Cemetery.  Over six thousand volunteers showed up to place thousands of wreaths, one at a time, on each grave.  In less than one hour, the entire cemetery was decorated in a touching tribute to our service men and women.  The boys and girls also had the chance to view the "Changing of the Guard" and visit the Kennedy graves. The trip also included a private tour through the Capitol, the Senate in session and the Library of Congress.  They proceeded down the mall and ascended to the top of the Washington Monument for magnificent views. Thanks to two generous donors,  the trip was easier and safer.  This great adventure was the first of its kind in the fourteen years of our ABC Program.  (12/09)
