Remembering The Creation Of Memorial Day

BOALSBURG —

Remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in Boalsburg, Centre County where Memorial Day originated. Its already been a busy weekend there and thousands are once again on hand for a mix of military history and town festivities. Many stop by to see the statue of "the three ladies," women who first decorated veterans' graves during the civil war in a Boalsburg Cemetary. The town has held a memorial day ceremony every year since then.
