On Memorial Day Weekend, 2010, a spectacular visual display of over 1,750 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 Rotary Club of Westerville Sunrise Field of Heroes is being held to honor our personal heroes - whoever they are to you... a family member, a friend, a veteran, a member of the armed services, your favorite teacher, a policeman or fireman.

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. After the Memorial weekend the flag is yours to keep. Flags can be ordered here. This is an opportunity for us all to come together as a community to remember, to honor, and to heal.
