Volunteers are needed to help with wreath clean-up from the Wreaths Across America event held in December.

Wreath pick-up will start at approximately 9 a.m., on Saturday, January 17th, at Maple Grove Cemetery in Findlay.

Volunteers are asked to pick up only those Wreaths Across America wreaths placed in December, leaving any other wreaths or decorations in place.

The National Wreaths Across America organization suggests that it would be helpful if volunteers bring a stick, pole, rake or something equivalent to support carrying multiple wreaths per trip.

Volunteers are reminded to dress for the weather and wear gloves and waterproof footwear.

In December, Findlay’s Maple Grove Cemetery hosted Wreaths Across America as people placed wreaths on the graves of hundreds of Veterans.

Wreaths Across America is a national event whose mission is to Remember the fallen US Veterans, Honor those who serve our country and Teach future generations about the sacrifices made to preserve our freedoms.
