The 2021 Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit Tour is starting the year with a trip to Houston. Wreaths Across America is best known for placing flags on the graves of U.S. veterans mid-December every year, and their aim is to educate the public about their sacrifices and honor those who have served. It’s a 43 foot long 5th wheel trailer with slide outs that has a theater and exhibits. It’s a walk through at both ends with all Covid protocols being applied.
There are four Houston-area locations beginning today:
TOMBALL, TX Friday, Feb. 26, 2021. The third stop will be the first open to the public in 2021 and will be at
CLARKSVILLE
, Tenn. – Local Wreaths Across America supporters invite the community to contribute now to ensure the success of National Wreaths Across America Day 2021.
City officials and local volunteers honored veterans laid to rest at Riverview Cemetery on Dec. 19 with the placement of balsam wreaths on their graves as part of National Wreaths Across America Day 2020. Some 280 graves were adorned with wreaths during the solemn ceremony.
The first-ever local event was a great success, and organizers thank the community for their support and attendance.
To help make the 2021 ceremony an even bigger success, the national Wreaths Across America organization is offering to match all wreaths funded by local supporters through Jan. 15, 2021.
