THE MISSION OF WREATHS ACROSS AMERICA
REMEMBER the Fallen. . . HONOR those who Serve. . . TEACH our children the value of Freedom.
Welcome to the Civil Air Patrol, Lubbock Composite Squadron's Wreaths Across America Page (TX-0031p)
The Civil Air Patrol has been participating with Wreaths Across America since we introduced the program to Lubbock, Texas, in 2008. Please continue to help us Remember our fallen heroes, Honor those who are still serving, and Teach the next generation on National Wreaths Across America Day, December 14/15, 2024 (See location pages for ceremony and wreath placement details), at the Slaton Englewood Cemetery, 1100 North 20th Street, Slaton, TX 79364. The ceremony will begin at 1100, with a wreath placement immediately following the ceremony.
We need to honor as many veterans as possible. Therefore, The Civil Air Patrol is supporting several cemeteries this year. We will continue to be a Sponsorship Group for The City of Lubbock Cemetery, where we held our first ceremony 16 years ago. We have picked up sponsoring Resthaven and Peaceful Gardens. We are supporting and participating in the planning of the ceremony for the Slaton Englewood Cemetery, Idalou Cemetery, and the new West Texas State Veteran's Cemetery that broke ground just this month. We've recruited new location coordinators for the Brownfield, Texas, area for 2024 and look forward to working with them. Our goal for many years has been to expand the program to the surrounding communities, and we are happy we have more location coordinators to help us with our original goal.
