Confederate Memorial Day Activities

The Col. John B. Palmer Camp 1946 would like to invite everyone to our annual Confederate Memorial Day activities. At 9:00 am on Saturday, May 7, 2011, the Camp will be conducting a memorial service on the grounds of the Yancey County courthouse, in Burnsville. We will be reading the names of Yancey County’s Confederate Dead, firing a salute, and raising a flag. That evening, at dusk, the Camp will lead a candlelight memorial service at the old Bakersville Cemetery, in the town of Bakersville, in Mitchell County.


Everyone is invited to come and bring a friend.
