Welcome to the Ivy Green Cemetery Bremerton's Wreaths Across America Page. 

On December 14, 2024 at 08:45 am (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony), Wreaths Across America will be at Ivy Green Cemetery Bremerton to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud. A Cocoa and coffee Canteen will be provided by the Washington State DAR Chapters 

At 1:00 at Bethel Cemetery in Port Orchard, a second ceremony will be held in the gymnasium of the Grace Bible Church. It is next to Bethel Cemetery in Port Orchard. The ceremony will start promptly at those times, followed by individual placement of Wreaths on the Veteran’s Graves. 

Following the Ceremony and wreath placement at Bethel Cemetery, a short reception will be held at Grace Bible Church in Port Orchard. After the reception, we will caravan to the other smaller cemeteries on the outskirts of Port Orchard. 

Over 1,100 wreaths need to be sponsored, and this year, they will be placed in 10 Cemeteries in Kitsap County to honor our veterans.

Thank you so much for supporting Ivy Green Cemetery, Bainbridge Island Cemeteries, Bethel Cemetery, Burley Cemetery, Colby Cemetery, Fraola Cemetery, Mountain View Cemetery, Seabeck Cemetery, Sedgwick Cemetery, Tracyton and wreaths placed on Veteran's Memorials around Kitsap County.
