Memorial Day Activities

Home By Geneva >> Memorial Day Activities

Days are getting longer, temperatures are getting warmer, and summer is right around the corner. Memorial Day is the unofficial kickoff of the summer season. What it is really meant to recognize can often get overlooked for the sake of a celebratory long weekend.

We want to bring the focus back to the heroes who lost their lives in service of our country. Here are some of our favorite ways to memorialize these individuals and their immeasurable sacrifices.

Memorial Day Activities
Hold a Moment of Silence

Start the holiday with the respect and seriousness it deserves – by holding a moment of silence in remembrance of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Send a Care Package

There are several remarkable organizations dedicated to sending care packages not only to our service men and women here and overseas but also to those wounded in service and the families of those who have died. Check out Operation Gratitude and consider sending a care package this Memorial Day.

Attend a Memorial Day Parade

Hundreds of communities across the country gather together to hold a parade in honor of those who have passed in service. Attending or participating in one could be an exciting way to get involved with your community

With Veterans Day around the corner, it’s time to brush up on the day’s history and discover what you can do to honor our nation’s Veterans for their service!
Decorate Your Home

Show your support by decorating the front of your home and yard with patriotic displays of appreciation. Ensure to properly hang a flag, or decorate in red, white, and blues! We love this rustic metal aged iron star wreath by Anthropologie!

Donate to a Good Cause

Donating to the Department of Veterans Affairs or Homes For Heroes or any number of other organizations focused on assisting American Heroes is a purposeful way of giving back to living service men and women and veterans, thanking them for their service.

Pay Your Respects

Taking a quiet moment to pay your respects at a National Cemetery or volunteer to leave flags on the graves and clean up later.

Write a Letter

Another thoughtful way to honor fallen troops is to write a letter of thanks to their family members letting them know their sacrifice is not forgotten. This is a great activity to include the whole family.

Bake a Treat

Memorial Day is also about the time you spend with the people you care about. If you’re having friends or family over for the weekend, we recommend this delicious strawberry blueberry shortcake recipe in theme with the day.
