Welcome to the Maplewood Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page. 

You did it! Congratulations to all our sponsors and volunteers! Wreath Day 2024 is one for the record books!

Once again, WAA is offering the "Thank You" matching program giving a boost to start 2025 Wreath Day sponsorships. December 14 and running through Friday, JANUARY 17, 2025 - ALL wreaths sponsored through your chosen and registered "sponsorship group" be matched by WAA for placement on next year's Wreath Across America Day - December 13, 2025.

DO NOT CLICK the RED Sponsor a Wreath button. The 'matching' program does not happen there.

Scroll down this website (beyond the map) to choose Kikthawenund Chapter, NSDAR in Madison County, the others are listed under "Local Groups Supporting Us" for this cemetery. Or copy and paste this website into your browser: www.WreathsAcrossAmerica.org/IN0182P

Your gift of a wreath today adds to our ability to serve our Veterans, and active duty service personnel, and adds to cemetery restoration activities at our sponsored cemeteries. Wreath Day 2025 may be months away, but gifts now help us plan accordingly.
