Ceremony and Volunteer Information

We are happy that you are willing to help with our Wreath Across America ceremony at Marietta National Cemetery. Please do not forget to register to volunteer! That way you will get all updates about the cemetery itself.

We would love your participation in the ceremony. Please arrive no later than 11:30 to participate in the ceremony which will begin at noon simultaneously around the country at thousands of cemeteries. We lay the wreaths following our very solemn ceremony to ensure that everyone has a chance to participate in honoring the soldiers buried in our cemetery.

Marietta National Cemetery is located 500 Washington Avenue. Parking is available outside the cemetery at local businesses, banks, and parking lots. We can make special arrangements if you need help getting into the cemetery. Please contact the location coordinator.

The most important thing to remember is to have a wonderful experience participating in the ceremony. Thank you so much for helping us achieve our mission to Remember, Honor and Teach.

Here are some things to remember about the ceremony:

• Everyone of all ages and backgrounds is welcome.
• Please help ensure that all participants get the opportunity to place a wreath.
• Please follow the location coordinators instructions on where to place wreaths, as well as "how" they should be placed.
• We especially appreciate volunteers willing to help clean-up. Please check in with the location coordinator if you are interested in helping with the clean-up.
