Join us this December out at the South Dakota Veterans Cemetery as we lay remembrance wreaths to Remember, Honor, and Teach. Following a short ceremony at 11:00 AM sharp, wreaths will be placed throughout the cemetery on the final resting place of the Veterans interred there. Sponsorships can be given online: www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/SD0021P

​We understand we have Veterans Day in the fall and Memorial Day in the spring, but our service members sacrifice their time and safety every single day of the year to preserve our freedoms. In many homes, there is an empty seat for one who is serving or one who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. There is no better time to express our appreciation than during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

Please plan and dress according to the weather - this ceremony and wreath laying will take place outside. Parking is limited and will be directed by volunteers.

www.siouxlandbiggive.org/midwesthonorflight

Sioux City Gateway Airport and local supporters are hoping to fundraise $200,000 to have a Midwest Honor Flight take off from SUX in the spring of 2025!

Tours are simply not possible without public support. Prior to Honor Flight Network, our Veterans had given up all hope of ever seeing their Memorials. Now they have hope – but time is not on our side. Every $1,000 that we receive will send one (1) Veteran out to DC to see their memorials. Won't you consider a donation towards an American Hero's Final Tour with Honor?

We can never repay our Veterans for what they’ve done. An “Honor Flight Tour” is simply a small token of our appreciation for everything they’ve done. Throughout their Midwest Honor Flight tour, the Veterans are thanked, recognized and admired for their service. They come home personally knowing how much their country loves them and respects them. Veterans will never forget this gratitude and adoration.

Please help us rewrite this final chapter of their lives. Our American Veterans deserve nothing less. Equal priority is given to any terminally ill veteran who has never visited their Memorials. If America thought it was important to build a memorial to their service and sacrifice, Midwest Honor Flight believes it’s important for them to visit their memorial before it’s too late.
