About

Beginning this month, more than 40 J.B. Hunt drivers will be transporting wreaths to cemeteries across the nation in preparation for National Wreaths Across America Day. On Saturday, December 15, wreaths will be placed on the graves of more than half a million fallen heroes across the country in remembrance of their sacrifice and service.

Once again, J.B. Hunt is participating in the event at the Fayetteville National Cemetery. All employees are welcome to attend the event at 10 a.m. on December 15.

We need volunteers to assist with unloading and placing the wreaths on graves. Two groups of volunteers are needed for the event.

1.       Unload crew: The first group will arrive at 7:30 a.m. to help unload boxes of wreaths from the truck. 

2.       Placement crew: The second group will place the wreaths on veteran headstones throughout the cemetery during the ceremony.
