Wreaths Across America's mission is to remember to Fallen, Honor those who serve, and Teach the next generation the value of freedom. The annual event takes place this year on December 13, 2025. Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds gather to place wreaths of the headstones of veterans and say their names out loud. Proceeds raised at this event help provide wreaths for over 3,000 Veterans in these area cemeteries: Eastside and Pleasant View Baptist Church Cemetery, Martin; Sunset and Sunrise, Dresden; Woodlawn, Sharon; Beulah and Obion County Memorial Gardens, Union City, and Pleasant View Memorial Gardens, Fulton, Ky.
This is a 5k run/walk.
