Welcome to the Rose Hill Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page. 

On December 14, 2024 at 12:00 pm (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony), Wreaths Across America will be at Rose Hill 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.

Our main Ceremony will be held at 12 Noon at the Elks Lodge 446 located at 400 N Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47404, with Wreath Placement to follow at Rose Hill Cemetery.
