Directions to Cemetery
Navigation systems do an adequate job finding the cemetery. Use Raleigh National Cemetery, Rock Quarry Road, Raleigh, NC 27610. When you arrive, please follow the people and signs to the site of the ceremony itself. Entrance to the ceremony is off Rock Quarry Road and normally will have a semi truck at the entrance.
Parking Instructions
There is plenty of parking near the cemetery and the elementary school across the street, so feel free to park in any available spot. Please do not park inside the cemetery circle as this inhibits the Wreath Delivery Convoy. Also, if you're in a motorcycle group please allow enough room for the wreath delivery truck to back in and to pull back out once wreath unloading is complete.Ceremony and Volunteer Information
