Description
Come out to support our fallen veteran laid to rest in Singing Hills Memorial Park. Wreaths across America is an annual event helping to Remember and Honor our veterans, but also to Teach the younger generations about the value of serving our country. The ceremony is scheduled for December 14, 2019 at 9:00am at Singing Hills Memorial Park.
Singing Hills Memorial Park, an official Wreaths Across America (WAA) location, will host a
wreath-laying ceremony, joining more than 1,200 other locations across the country
for National Wreaths Across America Day. Coordinated and led by the El Cajon Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2275, volunteers and local leaders will be on hand to place wreaths on the headstones of our
fallen service members at Singing Hills Memorial Park. Singing Hills has over 700 veterans interred at our cemetery. This annual event seeks to further the WAA mission of Remember, Honor, Teach, ensuring that the memory of those who served our country endures.
