Honoring the past - inspiring the future
Wreaths Across America, Chattanooga is proud to be honoring our Heroes at Chattanooga National Cemetery. Our mission is to ensure every veteran is honored with a wreath each year. As there is no government funding for the honoring of our Heroes with wreaths in December, we rely on local Patriots like you to sponsor wreaths to make this mission happen. (Wreaths Across America, Chattanooga has no paid employees).
All Wreaths ARE PURCHASED FROM Wreaths Across AmeriCA.
Please Note: Chattanooga National Cemetery Staff is not responsible for the Wreaths Across AMERICA event at the cemetery.

*****WE NEED YOUR HELP*****
Wreath Retirement - JANUARY 25, 2025 AT 8:30AM
We're looking forward to a beautiful (albeit chilly) day of service and Honor for our service men and women resting in Chattanooga National Cemetery.
Bring gloves, bring a friend, bring your patience. Rakes or short pieces (10 ft) of rope are handy as we carry wreaths to the roadside.
When you enter the main gate from Holtzclaw, turn right and proceed SLOWLY. There will be lots of people in a small space and we don't want anybody hurt.
We will park on the edge of the roadway on the RIGHT (OUTSIDE) of the circle ONLY. Please do not park in the grass.
Look for workers and volunteers in a green safety vest for directions and information.
Thank you each and every one of you for stepping up. This does NOT happen without you!

Take Action
It is said that a person dies twice. Once when his physical body dies and once when his name is said for the last time. We want all American Heroes to be remembered. We can’t do that without your support. You can donate toward wreaths, and/or volunteer your services.
