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

Welcome to the Osakis VFW Post 7902's Wreaths Across America Page. 

Each year our Osakis VFW Post 7902 is honored to remember our local fallen Veterans by placing a wreath on their headstones for the holiday season. This year we have 9 participating cemeteries and over 430 wreaths to lay. We hope we can count on your support to sponsor the wreaths and help us lay them on December 16th. 

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 our page and Wreaths Across America!
