Weekend events

Opening Ceremony

The Field of Heroes will officially open at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 26th, 2012.

On Memorial Day Weekend, 2012, a spectacular visual display of 2,500 American Flags will be displayed across from the Westerville Community Center on Cleveland Avenue in Westerville, Ohio. These 3' x 5' flags will stand 8 feet tall in perfect rows and columns across a field of green.

The Field of Heroes is an opportunity for our community members to honor their personal heroes - whoever they are... a family member; a friend; a veteran; a member of the armed services; a favorite teacher; a police officer; a firefighter or any other person who has made in impact on their lives

The Rotary Club of Westerville Sunrise invites you to join us to show support for your hero. Become a part of this community event by purchasing a flag that will stand proudly in the Field of Heroes. Flags can be ordered here (coming soon). After the Memorial weekend the flag is yours to keep, or you can ship the flag to your hero or donate it to a charitable organization supporting active military, veterans, public safety personnel or their families. This is an opportunity for us all to come together as a community to remember, to honor, and to heal.
