What is the Field of Honor®?

Hosted by THE ROTARY CLUB OF GEORGETOWN TX FOUNDATION, the Field of Honor® is a dramatic, emotion-filled week-long event displaying of up to 2,000+ full-size dedicated, 3′ x 5′ US flags, that celebrate, honor and benefit past and present military and first responders. Each flag is available for purchase and dedication in honor of a veteran, active or reserve duty military, first responders, K9 Units, and Equestrian heroes! Flags can also be designated as “Adopt a Hero” for which you choose the branch or service. Those flags are given to the designated leadership to award to their teams at their discretion. It is FREE to visit the Field of Honor® that is open to all 24/7 throughout the week of the event.

Ceremonies, activities, and displays take place from November 8 to 14. and the second weekend is dedicated to flag pick-up. Check the EVENTS page for daily information.

WHERE DOES THE FLAG SALES MONEY GO?

All funds raised through flag sales (including new posted flags, reposts, purchase of pre-flown flags or new flags to take home – not to fly on the field), less the cost of flags and payouts to Affiliates, support the Rotary Club Foundation’s grant opportunities for selected non-profit organizations that serve veterans and first responders providing support for mental health, family support, transition/employment. The amount of these funds are divided among the selected beneficiaries and the Rotary Club’s Foundation to be used to support service projects, scholarships, or other needs for veteran and first responder related needs. 

MISSION OF THE FIELD OF HONOR®

The mission of the Field of Honor® is to celebrate, honor, and benefit past and present veterans, active and reserve duty military and first responders, to provide an educational opportunity to youth that visit during school field trips, and to peacefully and respectfully honor our country, our flag, and those who defend our freedoms.

WHERE IS THE FIELD OF HONOR® HELD?

The 9th Annual Field of Honor® will continue to be held at San Gabriel Park on the Event Lawn with 10 majestic acres to display flags for our heroes! 

HOW AND WHEN CAN I BUY A FLAG?

Flags can be purchased and dedicated online from May through November 15 or at the event for a donation of $45 each. Flags purchased in prior years that are in perfect condition can be reposted for  $25 each. Purchased flag(s) can be picked up during designated times on the second weekend of the event, or they can be shipped for an extra $10 per flag if designated as such at the time of purchase. Repost flags must be in perfect condition to be flown on the field. They must be inspected at the field prior to being posted. A new dedication tag is created with an updated location on the field so it can be easily found. Docents are available to help you locate your flag during the week of the event.

Bring a laminated 5 x 7 photo of your hero(es) for each flag purchased. Our docents will attach your photo(s) to your flag(s) at no charge. You are encouraged to include a story on the back of the photo about your hero so that visitors can read a bit about them and feel the gratitude for their service.
