The Radford Noon Rotary Club presents the Dedication Ceremony for the Field of Honor on Monday, May 29, 2023 on the grounds of Glencoe Mansion, Museum & Gallery.
The event will be the official start of the Field of Honor display of American flags sponsored to honor heroes of all types from service members to individuals who have made an impact on someone’s life. The ceremony will include remarks from multiple members of the community.
Master of Ceremonies Dr. Richard Harshberger will lead the program, which will include Mayor David Horton, Radford VFW Commander Gary Harris, Grace Episcopal Church Rector William Yagel, and Virginia Delegate Jason Ballard. A 21-gun salute will be provided by the Dublin American Legion Post 58.
The Field of Honor is comprised of flags sponsored by members of the community, and the proceeds will benefit 14 organizations. Those groups include the Radford University Scholarships for Students from Radford High School, Vittles for Vets, the Women’s Resource Center, Beans and Rice and the Glencoe Mansion.
The Field of Honor display, which the Radford Noon Rotary plans to be an annual project, will be on display from Memorial Day through the 4th of July. Please be sure to visit the flags and honor our heroes.
