A breathtaking display of patriotism will take shape as 500 United States flags stand in solemn formation at Knights Play Golf Center from May 22 through May 25. This stirring presentation will bring the community together in a powerful tribute honoring our heroes.
This year’s event holds special meaning as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States—marking a legacy of freedom, resilience, and unity that continues to shape our nation. We also observe the solemn 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, honoring the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the enduring strength of the American spirit.
Each U.S. flag represents an individual and tells a story. Flags may be sponsored to honor those currently serving in our military, veterans, first responders, child abuse prevention advocates, and victims of 9/11. This unique event offers an opportunity for all of us to remember, reflect, and pay tribute to our many heroes.
Each flag stands as a powerful symbol of courage, sacrifice, and hope. Together, they reflect the unity of a nation that continues to stand strong through challenges, honoring the past while inspiring future generations.
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.
