REMEMBER the Fallen. . . HONOR those who Serve. . . TEACH our children the value of Freedom.

Welcome to the Rushville Chapter DAR Wreaths Across America Page. 

Since 1910, the Rushville Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution has helped to preserve our heritage established by our Patriots of the American Revolution. In keeping with the mission of NSDAR to promote historic preservation, education and patriotism, the Rushville Chapter is a proud supporter of Wreaths Across America. 

On Dec. 19, 2026, we will have a conjoined wreath laying ceremony at East Hill Cemetery to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud. Wreaths will be laid at Calvary Cemetery following the ceremony. 

Please help us honor and remember as many fallen heroes as possible by sponsoring remembrance wreaths, volunteering on Wreaths Day, or inviting your family and friends to attend with you.

Thank you so much for supporting the Rushville Chapter DAR and Wreaths Across America!
