Event Honoring Our Veterans in Lake Zurich for Memorial Day, 2026

In cooperation with Ela Township and VFW Post 2486, volunteers will place flags on the graves of our military personnel who died in service to the United States.  The act of placing flags on the graves of military veterans honors their memory and offers a powerful symbol of respect, gratitude, and remembrance for their ultimate sacrifice. 

Flags will be placed in Lake Zurich Cemetery (Lake Zurich) and Fairfield Cemetery (Hawthorn Woods) on May 23 and removed on May 30th. 

A big Thank You to all the volunteers and Ela Township for assisting in honoring our Veterans!
