Ceremony for our
Hometown Heroes
Saturday, July 5, 2025 9 A.M.
As part of the community July 4th celebration for 2025, the Chatham Rotary Club presents Hometown Heroes Field of Honor. A dedication of this Field will be held onsite at 9 A.M. July 5th. The Field is located beside U.S. HIGHWAY 29 immediately south of the Old Dominion Agricultural Center (ODAC) and features an array of approximately 350 American flags. The field has been in place since May 31 and is scheduled to be in place until July 12th.
The field provides an excellent opportunity to celebrate the holiday by recognizing an individual or group that has been of service to the nation, state, local community, or to you personally. You may recognize your own personal Hometown Hero by sponsoring a flag for a donation of just $40. Examples may include active service members, veterans, public servants, volunteer organizations like Fire and Rescue, teachers, friends, family, or the like. Donors will be recognized by cards indicating the donor and individual or group recognized. Cards will be attached to each flag sponsored and remain in place for the duration of the field. Proceeds from sponsored flags go to support numerous public service projects supported and executed by the Chatham Rotary Club.
If you would like to pick up your flag, please check the box on the registration form, and you may do so on Saturday, July 12th, from 10 - 12, as the field is being dismantled.
