The Wake County 2nd Annual Field of Honor® 2021
May 28-31, 2021

West Raleigh Baseball Complex
830 Barringer Drive, Raleigh, NC 27606

Creating an awe-inspiring panorama, United States flags will fly in a solemn formation at West Raleigh Baseball Complex during May of 2021. This stirring display of 501 flags will bring the community together in a patriotic tribute to honor our heroes.  Each U.S. flag represents an individual and tells a story. Flags may be sponsored to honor individuals currently serving in our military, veterans, first responders, child abuse prevention and victims of 9/11. This unique event is the perfect opportunity for all of us to remember and honor our many 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.

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.

Exchange Clubs in Wake County include: The Exchange Club of Fuquay-Varina, The Exchange Club of New Hope Wilders Grove, The Exchange Club of North Raleigh, The Peak City Exchange Club of Apex, The Exchange Club of Raleigh, The Exchange Club of Swift Creek Township, and The Exchange Club of West Raleigh.

The National Exchange Club serves communities in the United States. More than 630 local clubs throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico provide individuals with opportunities to use their time and talents to benefit their local communities and the country as a whole. Exchange’s Core Values are family, community, and country.

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