Each December on National Wreaths Across America Day, the mission to Remember, Honor and Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at participating ceremonies in all 50 U.S. states, at sea and abroad. This year National Wreaths Across America will be celebrated on this Saturday, December 14 December 2024. DEALEY Division will support again with a color guard and laying of wreaths.
Our dedicated Webpage to order wreaths is at this link. We will drill Saturday, 14 December for Wreaths Across America at Bedford Union Cemetery, 56 Clinton Rd, Bedford NY 10506. There are approximately 200 graves that will be honored with wreaths. Muster time is 0930. The event will go very quickly as there were plenty of volunteers to lay the wreaths. Parents, be prepared to stay or pick up by 1040. Uniform is NWU Type III. It will be sunny, and very cold. Check weather here. Bring your cold weather NWU items to wear (parka, fleece, mock neck, watch cap and gloves). It's easier to take something off than not have something to keep you warm.
