The Hometown Heroes banner program recognizes the service and dedication of individuals from the Saranac Lake community, as well as those connected to it, who have served or are currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. Banners featuring their photos and service details will be displayed on utility poles in the Village. This program is a non-political, non-partisan tribute to their service and sacrifice, run in partnership between the Women’s Civic Chamber of Saranac Lake and the Village of Saranac Lake.
The banners are printed on heavy-duty vinyl and will include the honoree’s name, rank, service branch, and era served. Measuring 2 feet wide by 4 feet long (24”x48”), these large banners ensure readability by both pedestrians and motorists. New banners will be installed once a year prior to Memorial Day.
Sponsoring a banner costs $225. The banners will be displayed for two years. After two years, the banners will be returned to the sponsor. Applications received after March 31, will be put on a first-come, first-served list for the following year.
No payment will be required until January. Details can be found on the application form. Forms can also be picked up at the Saranac Lake Veteran’s Memorial Association, 202 Broadway.
