Welcome to the Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page.
THERE WILL BE NO CEREMONY THIS YEAR.
Grave Specific Family and Friends Wreath Day will be December 7th from 8 a.m. to noon. This is for those who sponsored grave-specific wreaths only. The truck will only have enough wreaths for the ones sponsored as grave-specific.
On December 14, 2024 at 08:00 am (Wreath Placement Begins at 8am), Wreaths Across America will be at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery 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.
Please help our location lay wreaths at as many graves as possible by clicking the red "Sponsor" button. Or, if you would like to volunteer to participate in the wreath laying ceremony, please click the “Volunteer” button next to the cemetery name below, and don't forget to click the "Invite" button to invite your friends and family to join you.
Please follow the direction of traffic control with directions along with prominent signage to enter the cemetery on both days.

Ceremony and Volunteer Information
We are happy that you are willing to help with our Wreath Across America ceremony at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery
Here are some things to remember about the ceremony:
- Everyone of all ages and backgrounds is welcome.
- To help ensure that all participants get the opportunity to place a wreath, wreaths are distributed to registered participants. Please keep in mind there are over 200,000 gravesites at JBNC and only a small percentage of them receive wreaths each year. You may only get one wreath to place, or you may get several. It all depends on the number of wreaths sponsored each year. We depend on supporters to sponsor wreaths to help honor more heroes every year.
- Please follow the location coordinators instructions on where to place wreaths, as well as how they should be placed.
- We especially appreciate volunteers willing to help clean-up. Please check in with the location coordinator if you are interested in helping with the clean-up in January 2025.
The most important thing to remember is to have a wonderful experience participating in the ceremony and thank you so much for help Wreaths achieve our mission to remember, honor and teach.
