Volunteers needed Friday at the Veterans Cemetery in Fernley
RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – A trip to the Northern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery and the wreaths can’t be missed. There are more than 8,000 of them; a result of ‘Wreath Across America” festivities last December.
But they can’t stay forever.
“You know they’ve been out here for about a month,” says Rich Crombie with Nevada Veterans Coalition. “And now it’s time to pick them up and so we’ve got a little bit of an undertaking Friday morning at 8 A.M. But the coalition can’t do it alone.
That’s why they are asking for volunteers to show up here at the cemetery at eight in the morning Friday January 26, 2024 to join them to help collect the wreaths.
It’s a process he says that takes about an hour. Less time depending upon who shows up tomorrow.
Because this project is military oriented, Veterans organize it as such, with wreaths taken to various parts of the cemetery where trucks and trailers will be waiting to load them.
Crombie says there will be no pomp and circumstance.
And there are no expectations of volunteers either.
“Whatever way it is going to be easy,” says Crombie. “You are not obligated. You can pick up one wreath or 100 wreaths. Whatever you want to do. It is just the idea. We do need a little crowd to get it done.”
Crombie says if you have a pickup truck or trailer you are encouraged to bring it. Once collected the wreaths go to local goat farmers on other trucks parked out in front of the cemetery.
We are told the animals love the greenery once it gets to them.
If tomorrow won’t do, save up the energy for next December.
That’s when new wreaths arrive. They must be unloaded and then laid on the graves during a special ceremony during ‘Wreaths Across America.”

LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — Visitors at the Nevada National Security Site Museum got a lesson in Cold War history and Southern Nevada’s atomic past Saturday.
Retired test site worker Marcus Brown gave a presentation on Camp Desert Rock, the military installation located about four miles from the Mercury site, where the military conducted experiments to determine whether soldiers could operate in a nuclear environment.

Brown said the series is part of regular talks the museum hosts every other week on topics including the USS Nevada, “Duck and Cover” and 1950s Las Vegas — all aimed at preserving the legacy of nuclear testing and its impact on the valley.
“Share the legacy and the history of the Nevada Test Site and the culture that it really kind of imparted to the Las Vegas community,” Brown said.
Brown’s history with the test site
Brown began his career at the Nevada Test Site in 1982 as a radiation health technician, supporting underground tests through 1992. He then moved into environmental remediation and later nuclear operations, continuing to work in the field until his retirement in 2023.
He now volunteers as a docent at the Nevada National Security Site Museum to share that history with new generations. Brown said the museum helps tell a story many locals never heard.
“Come and visit the museum. There’s a lot of culture and legacy and history here,” Brown said.
