For the 22nd Anniversary of 9/11, Madison Exchange club will be creating an awe-inspiring panorama of United States flags that will fly in a solemn formation at Madison Green. This stirring display of 250 flags will bring the community together in a memorable and inspiring tribute to the victims of the terrorist attacks of September 11th of 2001 as well as active-duty military, fallen servicemen and women, first responders, child abuse prevention, heroes in our lives, all veterans, and hometown heroes.

The Stars & Stripes reminds us of who we are as a people. Americans meet the challenges of history and overcome hardships becoming stronger. That is just who we are. The United States flag represents our solidarity in creating a brighter tomorrow and uniting us all.

“Madison Salutes our Heroes” is the perfect name for the Field of Honor® display hosted by the members of the Madison Exchange Club.  This moving display is a gift to the community made possible through donations, sponsorships and the efforts of many dedicated volunteers. You can show your support and gratitude by sponsoring a flag or making a donation.

This is an experience hard to describe, but never to be forgotten. We invite all to visit the Madison, CT Field of Honor® patriotic display and walk with us among the posted flags.  Additionally, the display will raise funds for the charitable programs of the Madison Exchange Club.

The display is open to all without charge. Don’t miss it!
