Join us for our annual National Wreaths Across America event ceremony at 12 Noon at the Main Flag Pole in the Assembly Area. Registered volunteers will be scheduled to place the wreaths in designated sections from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
To Volunteer to place wreaths, please fill out and return our Participation Form:
To sponsor a wreath at Calverton, click on the “Sponsor Wreath” button on the HOME Page of our website: calvertonsupport.com
It will take you to the official Wreaths Across America ordering information for our location. Remember when you sponsor, or donate, a wreath, it will be part of the general distribution amount that will be placed on 2 to 3 sections of the Cemetery as determined by the Calverton Support Committee. Those sections are rotated year to year so that every section “gets a turn”. In 2025, sections 23, 26, 29 and MA were decorated. This year, different sections will be decorated by our volunteers.. The general supply of sponsored wreaths is then divided by the number of volunteers that sign up with us. In this manner, everyone volunteering to place a wreath will have an opportunity to do so. If you sponsor a large supply of wreaths, please don’t expect to take that number at the wreath pick-up station. That will not leave enough for everyone to participate. You will pick up the same number of wreaths as everyone else.
A General Sponsorship of a wreath is NOT for personal use. If you want to do that, then you must order a “Grave Specific” wreath on the WAA website. That wreath will have your name, or your loved one’s name, associated with it when you pick it up at the “Grave Specific Wreath Pick-up” Station. Please be careful when you are ordering. We will not be able to give you a wreath at that station unless you specifically ordered it that way.
THE DEADLINE TO ORDER A WREATH ONLINE IS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1st !
If you prefer to order by mail, and send in a check, click this link to get the mail-in form:
This is still good for the 2026 WAA event this December.
We had over 1400 volunteers registered to help place the wreaths in the designated sections this year, way more than we needed. The more wreaths that are sponsored by individuals and companies, the more that the volunteers will have a chance to place. If you can help us with corporate sponsorships for the 2026 event, please contact us.
Final Information will be sent to all Volunteers by Sunday, December 7th with section assignments. Thank you for your support of this event!
WREATHS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL THE PICK-UP DAY – SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2027.
