Last fall 52 banners honoured men and women who sacrificed in times of conflict so we can enjoy the life we have today. Once again the Banner committee is accepting sponsors from anyone who would like to recognize a veteran from this area or with some connection to our area.
We are happy to report we have well over thirty committed or interested sponsors already. This year we are asking that all required information be submitted before your application will be approved.
To sponsor a veteran we are asking for the sponsorship form, photo and biography of the veteran and the $250 fee to be submitted at the same time. Like last year we are accepting the first 50 submissions. Deadline for submissions is May 1 but please don’t hesitate to get your entire package in as last year we reached our limit weeks before and disappointed some sponsors.
If you would like to participate but don’t have a veteran to sponsor contact the committee for assistance. Sponsor forms are available at the RM of Pipestone office or can be downloaded from our website (https://sites.google.com/view/restonveteranbanners/) at Reston & Area Veteran Memorial Banners. We look forward to seeing these new banners hang this fall alongside the banners from last year.
