Recognizing Hometown Heroes

Veterans One Stop and the City of Waco Veterans Advisory Board have launched the Hometown Heroes Banner Program as a tribute for our community to honor past and present members of the armed forces and their family members.  

Applications to purchase a banner are available at Veterans One Stop, 2010 La Salle Ave, Suite A, and are due no later than Wednesday, September 17.  

To be eligible, honorees must be currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, or Space Force), be a veteran who was honorably discharged, or be a service member who died in the line of duty. Preference will be given to McLennan County residents. A limited number of banners are available. Banner cost is $150 each.  Sponsorship and volunteering opportunities are available.
