Parking Instructions
As the cemetery has very limited parking, and a very large number of attendees expected, we have two offsite parking sites with a borrowed shuttle and driver for each.
Rawiga Country Club at 10353 Rawiga Rd. is just south of the cemetery and Jerusalem Lutheran Church at 9282 Acme Rd. which is one road east of Rawiga.
The shuttles will drop you off in the roundabout at the back entrance of the cemetery. There will be a limited number of golf carts to aid those who need them.

Wreath Sponsorship

What does it mean to sponsor a wreath? It means you are supporting a yearlong mission to Remember the fallen, Honor those who serve, and Teach the next generation the value of freedom. Your sponsorship will support the new and existing programs developed to share the mission. And, it will place a wreath to honor an American hero at one of more than 3,700 participating locations this year on National Wreaths Across America Day – a day set aside to lay gathers as Americans with the same goal.
We can’t do that without your support, though. Your sponsorship will ensure a hand-crafted wreath of all-American balsam and hand-tied with a red velvet bow here in Columbia Falls, Maine. It will then be sent to one of our participating locations, where a volunteer will place it on the marker of a hero. That volunteer will then “say their name” to ensure that the legacy of duty, service, and sacrifice is never forgotten.
So, what does it mean to sponsor a wreath? It means you have the opportunity to join a grateful nation in saying “thank you” to those who stepped up to serve.
*Please Note: Specific locations designated as "ceremonial-only" accept a limited number of sponsorships. Any additional sponsorships received beyond those used for the ceremony will be distributed to other locations.
