The
public is invited to join Town of Huntington officials, the Veterans Advisory
Board, and local officials for a Veterans Day Ceremony on Sunday, November 11,
2018, at 9:00 AM on Veterans Plaza on the front lawn of Huntington Town Hall,
100 Main Street, Huntington, to honor veterans of the Town of Huntington and
across our Nation.
The
Northport High School Tour Choir will perform patriotic music and refreshments
will be served following the ceremony, which will take place amidst the
American flag display known as the “Field of Honor” organized by the Kiwanis
Club of Huntington.
For
the 9th year in a row, The Kiwanis Club of Huntington is sponsoring a “Field of
Honor” of American flags on display at Huntington Town Hall. 3’x5’ American
flags are mounted on 8’ poles surrounding Veterans Plaza on the front lawn of
Huntington Town Hall. Each flag has its own custom-printed gold ribbon
personalized and dedicated to each veteran honoree. Flags can be purchased at
BuyAFlag.org for $35. Flags were assembled in early September 2018 and will be
taken down in December 2018. Net proceeds benefit veterans’ and children’s
causes in Huntington.
For
