Miami Beach VFW Post 3559 Still Serving Day at Miami City Cemetery

Miami City Cemetery

Restore Military Headstones w/Miami Beach & the VFW

Join us for Miami Beach VFW’s Still Serving Day, a morning dedicated to honoring those who served by caring for their final resting place. In partnership with the Florida Public Archaeology Network, volunteers will come together at Miami City Cemetery on May 2, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM to clean and restore military headstones, preserving the stories and sacrifices of generations past.

This meaningful event will also feature a special sign unveiling led by Girl Scout Kassandra as part of her Silver Award project, where she documented over 1,700 military headstones across the cemetery. We are honored to be joined by JROTC cadets, a City Commissioner, and the CEO of Girl Scouts of Tropical Florida as we recognize her dedication and bring greater visibility to this important history.

Whether you come to volunteer, learn, or pay your respects, this is an opportunity to give back, connect with the community, and continue the mission of service beyond the uniform.

About the Miami Chapter

Across cities and towns just like yours nationwide, we serve our communities by starting with bringing different neighbors together for events centered around Service, Social Gatherings, and Civics.

By rolling up our sleeves side-by-side, we can begin to see that we have more in common than what divides us; that first and foremost we are fellow Americans with a common love for our families and communities.

These Chapters – also known as our Brickyards – are mobile places for neighbors to connect and solve local problems. We do this through respectful and open conversations, and to find higher ground as we work together brick-by-brick.

The Miami Brickyard is led by Janett Cordovés.
