Wreaths Across America Unveils the 2025 Mobile Education Exhibit Tour
Wreaths Across America (WAA) is thrilled to announce its plans for the Mobile Education Exhibit (MEE) national tour in 2025. This exhibit, a unique interactive museum on wheels, plays a crucial role in sharing the organization’s year-round mission: Remember the fallen, Honor those who serve, and Teach the next generation about the importance of freedom. The overwhelming support from communities across the nation underscores the significance of this initiative.
Tour Schedule: A Cross-Country Experience
In 2025, the MEE will venture across numerous states, providing an opportunity for communities to engage with its meaningful mission. The tour schedule will feature events in various states throughout the year:
January to April
The tour kicks off in January in Arizona, followed by visits to New Mexico in February and North Carolina in March. In April, the MEE will make its way to New York and Massachusetts, spreading the message of remembrance and honor in these key regions.
May to August
As spring transitions into summer, the exhibit will continue its journey to West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, and Oklahoma in May. June and July will see the MEE stationed in Pennsylvania, allowing even more individuals to experience this educational opportunity. In August, it will travel to Michigan and Wisconsin, engaging more communities along the way.
September to December
As the fall months approach, the MEE will visit Ohio in September. October will bring the exhibit to Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, followed by a trip to Florida in November. The tour will conclude with a special return to Maine in December, where it will participate in the “Escort to Arlington” event leading up to National Wreaths Across America Day.
Inviting Local Communities to Participate
The MEE's mission is not just about showcasing its displays; it is about inviting veterans, active-duty military, their families, and local community members to engage with the exhibit. When the MEE arrives in a community, all are welcome to tour the exhibit, ask questions, share stories, and connect with WAA ambassadors and volunteers. Importantly, public tours are free, ensuring that everyone has the chance to partake in this enlightening experience.
Honoring Veterans Through Community Involvement
One of the remarkable aspects of the MEE tour is its ongoing commitment to honoring veterans. Since its launch in 2019, the WAA ambassadors have proudly welcomed home over 6,000 Vietnam veterans during their visits to communities. This initiative reflects the organization’s dedication to preserving the legacy of those who served.
