2K American Flags Pay Homage To Honor Vets, Service Members In Wheaton

The Wheaton Field of Honor will have 2,000 flags on display at Seven Gables Park from June 30 through July 4.

WHEATON, IL — Seven Gables Park will once again become a landscape of red, white and blue with 2,000 American flags for the 2023 Field of Honor.

The flags will be on display from June 30 through July 4, with the park welcoming visitors from dawn until dusk. Though the flags create a striking large-scale scene when viewed together, each individual flag is dedicated to a person who served in the military, is an active duty member, works as a first responder or is another type of local hero.
