Military Hometown Heroes Banner Program
The Town of Mint Hill Announces Military Hometown Heroes Program
The Town of Mint Hill Military Hometown Heroes Banner Program is a tribute created for our community to honor fallen service members, veterans, and active-duty service members of the United States Armed Forces. Banners will be displayed on light poles with the veteran’s photo on both sides of the banner, along with name, conflict/war served and branch of service. Banners will be on display twice per year (Memorial Day and Veterans Day) for two years. The first cycle of banners will be hung around the fountain at Town Hall starting in November 2022.
