Plano Flags of Honor
November 4, 2023 – November 11, 2023
An Expression of Gratitude
A field of over 1,000 3′ x 5′ American Flags will express our gratitude to our veterans and first responders. Each flag tells the story of heroes whose lives were devoted in service to others, many of whom made the ultimate sacrifice.
We will honor family members, friends and neighbors whose service and sacrifices have allowed all of us to be safe and enjoy freedoms many in other lands cannot enjoy. By honoring them through this display, we are creating a visual expression of our gratitude to those who serve, present and past, living and deceased, while raising money for their causes.
The motto of Rotary is “Service above Self”. Our Veterans and First Responders live this motto every day.
Come and Reflect
On each flag hangs a dedication card that reflects the service given by the honoree. Each card tells the story of heroes whose lives were devoted in service to their fellow man. From the Civil War to the present, all are represented.
Walk through a field of silent reflection. Experience a sense of unity while reading the stories of our hereos along with others of all ages, colors and creeds.
Hear the haunting sound of TAPS at dusk and experience the reverence of walking the field at night when the flags seem to reach out and tell their own stories.
Take home a profound feeling of thank you for those that served or are currently serving to protect our way of life.
