Join us in Honoring our Veterans
The Yountville Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Yountville Veterans Home, is pleased continue this important tradition at the Yountville Veterans Home Cemetery.
On Saturday, December 16 the Yountville Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with Wreaths Across America will host a wreath-laying ceremony at the Yountville Veterans Home Cemetery.
Each December on National Wreaths Across America Day, Wreaths Across America’s mission to Remember, Honor and Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 3,400 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea and abroad. Wreaths Across America started as a simple gesture of thanks that has grown into a national movement of dedicated volunteers and communities coming together to not only remember the nation’s fallen and honor their service, but to teach the next generation about the sacrifices made for us to live freely.
