Guardian
Program

The
SC Division instituted a special program to
honor the memory of our Confederate
Ancestors and to ensure the preservation of
their final resting places. Any SC
Division camp member in good standing, who
has demonstrated his willingness to serve in
this special capacity, and has tended a
Confederate soldier’s grave for two years
prior, may become a FULL GUARDIAN. All
compatriots are encouraged to participate in
this most worthwhile program to honor our
ancestors and protect their final resting
places.
Guardians
shall care for and protect the grave of a
Confederate Veteran, ensuring that the site
is kept clean and well maintained year
round. He shall be responsible that
the grave has an appropriate marker
designating it as the resting place of a
Confederate Veteran. He shall
personally visit the grave a minimum of
three times a year, to include Confederate
Memorial Day, or at least one week prior,
when he shall place either a wreath or small
Confederate Flag, or both, on the grave.
Individuals
who wish to become a GUARDIAN must complete
the Guardian Application form and submit it
to the Chairman of the Guardian Review
Committee. There is an application fee of
$10.00 to cover the cost of the GUARDIAN pin
and certificate.
For
more information about the program and how
to apply, contact
our camp Graves Registration officer.

Division SCV Guardian Program page.
