Welcome to the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery - Boise's Wreaths Across America Page.
On December 14, 2024 at 10:00 am (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony), 1,833 wreaths from Wreaths Across America will be placed at Idaho State Veterans Cemetery - Boise 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.
The Idaho State Veterans Cemetery in Boise, Idaho, has chosen to work with another local organization to honor its veterans. Wreaths Across America will send the 1,833 sponsored veterans’ wreaths for placement on December 14, 2024, and The Idaho Veterans Network will cover the remainder of the headstones.
