Fill out the form for your tickets to our annual Military Appreciation Football Game on Saturday, November 14th! The parking pass and directions will be emailed to you when you sign up, or you can view them below. Tickets will be available for pickup at the tailgate location. We also need volunteers to unfurl the flag during the National Anthem. We hope to see you there!

Update as of 10/30/2026 – The ticket request form is now closed. If you were unable to sign up, we encourage you to come by the tailgate area before the game, as reserved tickets that go unclaimed are often available for redistribution. Unclaimed tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. We cannot guarantee availability, but there are typically a lot of tickets available shortly before kickoff.

UConn’s Office of Veterans & Military Programs, in partnership with the Arnold Air Society, need your help. This holiday season we’re honoring the service and sacrifice of over 900 veterans laid to rest in Mansfield, and we can’t do it without you.

More details are on our Wreaths Across America Website.

As many of you may know, our office loves a good competition, we will have the option for teams at UConn compete to sponsor the most wreaths. To compete, please email emily.i.lugo@uconn.edu with your team’s name. Emily will then add your team to the form so other team members can enter their wreath donations. As you purchase wreaths, you will complete this Form which will indicate your team’s name and order number. You can email Emily directly with any questions about Wreaths Across America. Winner gets a commemorative trophy! Thank you all for your continued support.

On December 21, 2026 at 11:00AM we will hold a ceremony at the New Storrs Cemetery to Remember and Honor our veterans and afterwards we will by laying Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country’s fallen heroes. We’d love for you to join us!

Please join us for our annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Tuesday, November 11th at 11:00am.
