The Wreaths Across America story began over 28 years ago when Worcester Wreath Company (a for-profit commercial business from Harrington, Maine) began a tradition of placing wreaths on the headstones of our Nation’s fallen heroes at Arlington National Cemetery. Over the years, Worcester Wreath has sponsored countless wreaths, which are placed by volunteers in a wreath laying ceremony each December. The Mission Continues' Service Platoons are proud to support these efforts in honoring the lives of those we've lost during the holiday season.

Join the Kansas City Platoon and CarMax on Saturday, December 14th, at 11:00am, for a meaningful event in support of Wreaths Across America at the National WWI Museum. Together, we will honor and remember our veterans by laying wreaths and speaking their names aloud-a powerful way to reflect on their legacy.

Meet outside the museum 15 minutes prior to the ceremony beginning at 11:00am. This event offers a chance to connect with fellow veterans and community supporters, share stories, and reflect on the mission of the Kansas City Platoon. We hope to see you there, and we hope you get involved!

Please note that all volunteers are required to complete registration and waiver on The Mission Continues event page before December 14th. To find the TMC event page, copy and paste this url in your browser: https://www.missioncontinues.org/event/details?id=a1lWP0000016zY5
