Flag Ceremony

Please join The Salem Cemetery Association as we host our annual Flag Ceremony at 10 a.m., rain or shine, on Saturday, May 21. We will celebrate the many Veterans buried on our historic grounds, enjoy music, speakers and presentations by local Boy Scout Troop #311. This is an inspirational event that will leave you with a happy heart and a song in your step. Refreshments will be served, and the public is encouraged to join us as we place flags on the graves of each of our soldiers dating back to the Confederacy. Come join the fun and honor our Veterans. We look forward to seeing you. Salem Cemetery is located two miles west of Bloomburg off Highway 74 at 2455 CR 4810.
