In Person

Add to Calendar 2025-01-11 07:00:00 America/Los_Angeles 2025 Wreath Retirement and Clean Up On Saturday, January 11, 2025 - we will be retiring and cleaning up the wreaths that were placed. We need as many volunteers as possible to ensure they are removed properly and in a timely manner. Starts at 0700 hrs. and will last until all wreaths are retired. If you have a pick up truck and/or cargo vehicle, please consider bringing that with you as we need help hauling the wreaths to the large onsite bins. We need to pick up all wreaths in all sections. Majority of wreaths are placed in and around sections (to be updated) - so please start there first. Check adjacent sections but there are wreaths spread in all sections of the cemetery. Please sweep through all sections. Picked up wreaths must be brought to the Recycle Bin. Either load them into your own vehicle or we have volunteers with Pick Up trucks that will make rounds to the sections. Collect wreaths at the side of the roads and help load into Pick Up Trucks. Drivers please use Hazard lights to maintain safety and help identify our volunteer vehicles. Recycle Bin is located in dirt holding lot behind Lake C and Medal of Honor Circle. Please download and see map for details: (Map to be update) It contains important notes and highlighted areas. The admin team plans to arrive at 0630 hrs to set up our "command post" at the Amphitheater – come see us there if you need assistance or have questions. We are ON, Rain or Shine!!
