Upcoming Events
Wreaths Across America:
The 2023 Wreaths Across
America ceremony and wreath laying will be held Saturday, December 16th, 2023 at 11:00 AM
inside the Memorial Park Chapel.
The ceremony to Remember and
Honor our veterans will be led by the Riverside Flight Civil Air Patrol
(OK0058P) with the wreath laying to promptly follow.
Coordinated and led by
Memorial Park Cemetery, Riverside Flight Civil Air Patrol (OK0058P), and local
volunteers, last year we had over 600 sponsored Remembrance wreaths to place on
graves of our country’s fallen heroes at Memorial Park Cemetery.
Our goal is to one day be able
to place a wreath on every fallen service member’s grave at Memorial Park
Cemetery with growing community support each year.
We thank you for
your support to honor and remember our nation's fallen heroes. As a major partner in Wreaths Across America,
CAP has adorned memorials and veterans’ graves with balsam wreaths to make sure
the sacrifices of the nation’s service members are not forgotten.
Last year, members of the public sponsored the placement of more than 1.5
million wreaths at 1,400-plus cemetery or memorial sites across the U.S. and
abroad.
More than 250 CAP squadrons participated in last year’s Wreaths Across
America ceremonies, in which wreaths were placed at cemeteries and memorials in
all 50 states, as well as 24 locations overseas.
