Signature Annual Event
Flowers of Remembrance
"Each flower is a promise kept" ~Anonymous Volunteer
Held each year in partnership with Arlington National Cemetery, Flowers of Remembrance invites members of the public to lay a flower at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on the day before Memorial Day.
This rare opportunity—often reserved for Sentinels and military leaders—allows visitors to honor service and sacrifice in a powerful, personal way. Each flower laid connects individual remembrance with the collective legacy of service.
Details for the 2026 event will be shared once confirmed.
