Each year, the staff of Haven Harbour Marina Resorts gathers to serve our local community in an act of charitable giving. With hopes of partaking in an event that will occur for many years to come, Haven Harbour with assistance from St. Paul’s Episcopal Churchyard, has spearheaded an effort to honor veterans with hand-made holiday swags for laying at the historic cemetery.

The churchyard at St. Paul’s is home to over 240 veteran grave sites, with the oldest dating back to the Revolutionary War era. Swags were made throughout the days leading up to this morning in a boat repair shop at Haven Harbour Marina. Each swag consists of several locally-sourced spruce and pine branches, topped with holly berries and bound by a tie and ribbon.
