​

The Georgia National Cemetery Advisory Council wants to thank you for your wonderful support.  Honoring those who have served their country and given their lives in defense of this great nation, is an emotional experience that we must share with our younger generation(s).  Thank you for assisting and providing that honor this year and for years to come.

​

The Georgia National Cemetery Advisory Council conducts and controls this program.  Accordingly, the removal of the wreaths are also the responsibility of the Georgia National Cemetery Advisory Council.  Cemetery employees are not responsible for the removal.  As beautiful as the wreaths are, they cannot remain.  On Saturday, January 18, 2025, at 9:00 am we will begin the removal of all the wreaths from the gravesites and also from the Columbarium's.  The entire process of removing the wreaths, placing them in the dumpsters provided will take approximately two hours depending on the amount of assistance.  The removal of the wreaths is mandatory and must be conducted on a Saturday as no interment services are conducted on Saturday.   Accordingly, the removal will take place rain or shine.  Remember, this is hallowed ground.  No horseplay, no music, no loud or boisterous activity.   Pets are also not allowed.  Please come out and join us in removing the wreaths.  The Georgia National Cemetery Advisory Council thanks you for your continued support.
