It'll be a 'Field of Flags' at Draper Memorial Park

MILFORD, MA—Citizens for Milford is partnering with the Milford Corps of the Salvation Army to organize the Draper Memorial Park Field of Flags, a tribute acknowledging the service and sacrifice of our veterans and active military personnel with a display of American flags to be placed in Draper Memorial Park on five patriotic holidays every year: Memorial Day, Flag Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Veterans Day.

According to a recent announcement, Citizens for Milford and the Salvation Army, with support from the Milford Parks Commission and Veterans Services, are launching this new project for Veterans Day, November 11, 2016.

"We imagine the placement of dozens of beautiful American flags around Draper Park will make an inspiring sight this Veterans Day," said the press release.

Details on how you can sponsor an American flag (3′ x 5′ flag on a 10′ tall staff) to be placed in Draper Park in memory or honor of a veteran or active military service member will be announced soon.
