Wreaths Across America

December 14 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Service members hold wreaths to place during Wreaths Across America wreath laying event.

Wreaths Across America is a nonprofit organization founded to expand the annual wreath-laying ceremony, honoring those who served and remembering our fallen heroes. Each year, more than 2 million veterans’ wreaths will be placed on local, national, and military cemeteries as well as veterans’ memorials and historic sites.

On December 14 at 10 a.m., the Wreaths Across America ceremony will be at U.S. Air Force Academy Cemetery with the wreath placement immediately following. Please come out to assist in placing wreaths and bring your friends and family! This event is a great opportunity to remember the fallen, honor those who served, and teach the next generation the value of freedom.

To sign up as a volunteer, use the Wreaths Across America website, search for the U.S. Air Force Academy Cemetery-COAFAC under locations, and select ‘Volunteer’. This can also be found at Overview – Wreaths Across America as well as directions to the cemetery.
