Wreaths Across America,
Saturday December 13, 2025
Each December, volunteers from across the country come together at National Cemeteries to honor deceased military veterans. Each Veteran receives a Holiday Wreath on his or her grave. This year’s ceremony will be on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at the Gerald H. Solomon National Cemetery in Schuylerville. More information will follow about our participation but know that there are many ways to be involved, including sponsoring a wreath if you are unable to attend. We encourage you to bring family members and friends if you would like to be involved in wreath placement. The time commitment is minimal but the satisfaction in having participated in this event is so rewarding and moving.
If you’d like to join us, please send an email with your name, contact email address, and cell phone number to RC10communications@gmail.com and I’ll respond and add you to my contact list.

Hoping to see many of you at this event.
