Volunteers Needed Jan. 25 To Retire The Wreaths

  • Saturday, January 4, 2025

For so many reasons, over the past month, the most visited location in Chattanooga has been Chattanooga National Cemetery and the wreaths placed on the graves were to remember and honor these veterans laid to rest at the Cemetery.  It’s now time to retire these wreaths.

The wreaths will be retired (removed) on Saturday, Jan. 25, at 8:30 a.m. Volunteers are needed. No registration is required, just come to Chattanooga National Cemetery. Volunteers may park at the Cemetery on the right side along the curbing (not on the grass). 

So many “thanks” to all those that donated financially, donated their time or donated their services and can proudly state: “That on Dec. 14, 2024, we remembered that the freedoms that we have today did not come without a price,” said Captain Mickey McCamish, U. S. Navy (Retired), Wreaths across Chattanooga.
