Healing Fields of Honor

The grassy lawn in front of St. Mary’s School will once again provide the gorgeous setting for the 2018 Field of Honor®. This year’s theme, “Walking Amongst Heroes”, pays tribute to the men and women of Ontario county and surrounding communities. Hundreds of U.S. flags posted will create a sea of red, white and blue that will form an inspiring and lasting memory that is hard to describe unless experienced. This Field of Honor ® unites us as we honor our veterans, members of the military, first responders and victims of 9/11. We will honor and remember the men and women who left family and friends to defend our country by joining the military or those that stayed home to protect and serve in their communities as first responders. We honor and give tribute to those that gave the ultimate sacrifice.

The 2018 Field of Honor ®field of flags will stand as solemn sentinels to those that are being honored. Each flag has a tribute plaque attached, detailing the honoree’s contribution to our great country. The flags will fly proudly November 12-16, 2018.

Admission is free and open to the public.
