Hear a presentation regarding Field of Honor, a Tribute to Service Above Self.

Background

Field of Honor, a Tribute to Service Above Self, will be hosted by the Rotary Club of Georgetown. It benefits our military and first responders, including K-9 service heroes, and their families.  This event will be held in San Gabriel Park from November 5th to 12th. 
This year, the 6th Annual Field of Honor® will once again offer the grand OPENING CEREMONIES: A CELEBRATION OF HEROES on November 6, complete with displays of MILITARY TANKS/VEHICLES, FIRE ENGINES, SWAT VEHICLE, K-9 DEMONSTRATIONS, MUSIC, A DEVIL DOG FLYOVER, and MUCH MORE!! The added feature this year is the Tunnel to Towers 9/11 “Never Forget” Mobile Exhibit. Four FDNY firefighters that were eyewitnesses to the tragic events will provide tours of this 1,100 square foot exhibit all week. Don’t miss the exciting escorted arrival on November 5 at 9:30 a.m.! The Quilt of Valor ceremonies, the “Dear Hero Station,” tributes, displays, student field trips, and other exciting events will take place throughout the week, and will culminate with a PATRIOTS CELEBRATION BBQ where the Rotary Club of Georgetown’s Patriot Award will be presented.
