Blue Star Mothers to honor soldiers during Fredonia festival - Observer Today: "After first gaining support from the town of Pomfret board, and later approval from the village of Fredonia, the Blue Star Mothers of Chautauqua County will be honoring soldiers past and present this winter.
The village of Fredonia board approved that the group create and sell various colored stars to be placed on the village of Fredonia Christmas tree in Barker Commons during the tree lighting ceremony as part of the Miracle on Main Street festival."

Stars will be sold for $5 throughout Fredonia and will be colored
specifically for the individual, with blue stars for active duty service
members, gold stars for deceased service members from any war, silver for
disabled veterans, red for veterans of any status and white for anyone who would
want to support the troops. Proceeds of the purchases will go to help fund the
shipping of care packages to current soldiers overseas.
