Toledo Memorial Park Hosts Annual Wreaths Across America Event 

Honoring our past through ceremony and education.

Sylvania, OH—The annual Wreaths Across America program at Toledo Memorial Park (the Park) is set for Saturday, Dec. 16, 2023, at noon. The event marks the 11th annual presentation of wreaths at the Park.

“The mission of Wreaths Across America is to remember the fallen; honor those who serve; and to teach the next generation the value of freedom,” said Jeff Glegg, president and CEO of the Park. “Being a local venue for this important event is something we hold dear at the Park. We are committed to honoring the legacy of first responders and veterans and this event serves as a lovely book end each year for the celebration of those who have served.” 

Visitors on Dec. 16 will experience a touching ceremony with wreath placement immediately following. This special event remembers and honors veterans by laying remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes.

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. Specific grave requests at the cemetery can be made by contacting the location coordinator, Mel Harbaugh, at 46elapid@gmail.com to help ensure wreath placement.
