Have you sponsored a remembrance Christmas tree in Besse Park?
If so, Wareham Week wants to hear from you! We’re interested in writing a story about the new town program and the residents who decided to honor their loved ones with a tree.
Please reach out to reporter@warehamweek.com if you want to share the story of your tree.
We’d love to hear about the decorations you picked out and about the person you were remembering with a tree this holiday season. Don’t forget to include your tree number! Feel free to share your thoughts about the new program as well — would you like to see it continue in years to come?
