SUNDAY
TAPS VIGIL, JULY 5, 2009
Hopkinton to join thousands of communities across America
|
|
Please
join the Hopkinton Veteran’s Celebration Committee on
Sunday, July 5, 2009 as we join thousands of communities
across America for a remembrance ceremony at the Evergreen
Cemetery in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. The Committee is
hosting a “Sunday Taps Vigil” starting at 7:00 p.m.
The ceremony will consist of a short tribute to American
soldiers, veterans and their families and is expected to last
15 minutes. The ceremony will include the sounding of
the 24 hauntingly beautiful notes of “Taps”.
“Taps”
traditionally serves two important purposes. At military
outposts around the world it is played in the evening to
signal the time for quiet, rest and reflection after a day of
duty. It is also mandated by the Department of Defense
to be sounded live by a bugler, if possible, at the funeral of
each and every American veteran as a final tribute to that
individual veteran’s honorable time of service to his or her
country. An average of over 1,600 American veterans are
laid to rest each day.
Hopkinton
has held this ceremony, on the first Sunday of each month,
since it was initiated in March 2004 by the national
non-profit organization Bugles Across America. Since the
ceremony was first proposed, over 1,500 communities across
America, as well as in Canada and several other countries, now
participate.
