City cemetery to participate in annual Wreaths Across America event in December

The city of San Marcos Parks and Recreation Department will once again join the mission to remember, honor and teach as an official location for the 2023 Wreaths Across America event.

This is the fifth year that the cemetery will participate in the national program on Saturday, Dec.16.

Wreaths Across America started as a gesture of thanks that has grown into a national movement of dedicated volunteers and communities coming together to not only remember the nation’s fallen and honor their service but to teach the next generation about the sacrifices made for us to live freely.
