Memorial Day Ceremony To Honor Veterans

Tico Times
By Tico Times

The American Legion Post 10 of Escazú will conduct a Memorial Day ceremony honoring U.S. military veterans who have passed away in Costa Rica since last Memorial Day. There will also be a Post Everlasting ceremony transferring members of American Legion posts in Costa Rica who have passed away this past year to the American Legion Post Everlasting.

The ceremony will be held May 30 at 11 a.m. at the San Antonio de Escazú cemetery, where the post has three mausoleums.

The ceremonies are open to the public, and the post encourages everyone to participate in this final tribute to our departed military veterans.
