Saturday, December 18th, the Southern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery, located here in Boulder City, will be participating in “Wreaths Across America”, an annual event where wreaths are placed on the graves of Veterans to remember and honor them for their service. You can share in the event and show your support in several ways:

Press View and then you’ll see a button where you can register to Volunteer. The ceremony will begin at 9:00AM and volunteers are welcome to attend.
Sponsor a wreath to be laid locally, or anywhere else in the US:
If you would like to give a donation to sponsor a wreath, or want more information visit the Wreaths Across America page HERE. (www.wreathsacrossamerica.org). The deadline to sponsor a wreath is Thursday, November 25, 2021.
What’s more, if you decide to sponsor a wreath you can do so in the name of a loved veteran who is currently serving, or in the name of a veteran who has passed. You can even make a personal donation to an existing grave marker at a participating Veterans Cemetery location. Wreath donations costs start at $15.00.
