Cindy Sellers, Treasurer and Wreaths Across America Chair
The price of a wreath will change to $17.00 on February 1, 2023. So, ladies let's rally and buy some wreaths for Wilmington National Cemetery. Cindy is our new chairman for Wreaths Across America. As members of the 1812 chapter, you can write out a check and mail it Cindy or give her a check at an 1812 meeting. Make out the checks to the 1812 Commissioner Gause Chapter and put Wreaths Across America or WAA in the memo line. You can e-mail Cindy at cindysellers@ec.rr.com if you have any questions. Her home address is on the member's contact information online.
I also suggest buying by credit card, however, if you want to contact me at par4wilson@gmail.com. I can e-mail you a form to fill out, write your check to Wreaths Across America and put NC0025P in the memo line along with location: NCWNCE and mail the check and the form to the address at the top of the form. If you are reading this note then scroll down and click on the website which should take you directly to our chapter's WAA site. Click on it and follow the directions. After you have put in your credit card info then scroll down to be sure you have clicked the final button to purchase a wreath. If you don't get a receipt e-mailed to you then the transaction did not go through. Please e-mail me your receipt so I can double-check it for records. Don't pay the extra $3.00 they ask you for.
Thanks.

1. Click on Sponsor a
wreath. Each wreath is $17.00.
2. Fill in your
information and the name of the person. Then your credit card information. If
you do not get a thank-you e-mail after donating or you don’t receive a
confirmation e-mail then the transaction did not go through.
3. If you are having problems ordering a wreath, then call the main number for Wreaths Across America at 877-385-9504 Monday-Friday. Someone will answer the phone between 7:00 am through 7:00pm. On weekends you can call on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am-2:00 pm. You can buy a wreath with a credit card or debit card. I don't recommend using Pay Pal. If you call any other time you can leave your name and phone number and someone will call you back. You will need our group ID: NC0025P and Location: NCWNCE.
After purchasing a wreath by phone or by e-mail you should get an e-mail confirmation. After you receive the e-mail confirmation forward it to Phyllis Wilson so she can keep a record of it. If there are any concerns she will have an account number to refer to.
"This year, when
you place a Wreath on a grav of a Veteran, you will know it is not just a wreath.
It's your personal gift to an American hero, and you will swell with pride, and
have a tear in your eye knowing you've done something special for our Veterans
and their families. God bless our Veterans and God bless America."
Phyllis Wilson is the coordinator for Wreaths Across America for our 1812 Chapter and three other organizations.
