Welcome to the Oregon Coast Veterans Association's Wreaths Across America Page.
On Saturday, December 13, 2025, National Wreaths Across America Day, the Oregon Coast Veterans Association will be helping Eureka Cemetary in Newport to Remember and Honor our veterans by laying Remembrance Wreaths on the graves of our local heroes and speaking that veteran's name out loud, so they are not forgotten. The ceremony is open to all, and dozens of local and visiting volunteers attend to participate in the wreath laying ceremonies, which will conclude with the playing of Taps. Bugler, and retired Navy Chief Steve Schaljo, Vancouver, WA, has been invited again this year to honor our veterans at rest in Eureka Cemetery.
YOU ARE INVITED...to help us honor and remember our veterans by sponsoring remembrance wreaths, volunteering on National Wreath Day, and inviting your family and friends to attend our ceremony.
And thank you so much to all our sponsors and volunteers for supporting Oregon Coast Veterans Association and Wreaths Across America!
