Local Wreaths Across America Effort Seeking Volunteers

Wreaths Across America will be happening on Saturday, December 13.  We have expanded from the 385 veteran graves in St. Charles and Taycheedah Cemeteries to include the 1,690+ veteran gravesites in Calvary Cemetery.  We need volunteers to help place all these wreaths.  Can you help, please, get the word out for us?  Here is the basic information and I’ve attached a Volunteer Request Flyer and a brief release.  As always, the DAR would welcome the opportunity to come to the studio to share information and make a request for volunteers — let me know if this is a possibility.

The Fond du Lac Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution is once again proud to participate in Wreaths Across America, a mission to Remember the fallen, Honor those who serve, and Teach the next generation the value of freedom. We invite you to join us on Saturday, December 13, 2025, for this year’s ceremony and wreath-laying.
