Glendale Field of Honor 2022 Supporting Veterans and Service Projects in our Community

Citizens and visitors to Glendale will experience an amazing display of patriotism with 1,000 U.S. flags flying atop 8?foot poles in perfect rows at the entrance of Forest Lawn Glendale from May 23 to May 30, 2022.

This display honors veterans, current military personnel, first responders, community leaders or any hero of your choice. The entire community will have an opportunity to participate and honor their heroes by sponsoring one or more of the flags on display. Proceeds from the event will be directed right back into the community including Veterans Housing.

Glendale Sunrise Rotary in collaboration with Forest Lawn Glendale is pleased to welcome the entire community to walk through the Field of Honor free of charge. Sponsoring a flag to honor one of your heroes will not only support the local community but if you desire, a Flag Sponsor can take home their flags at the end of the event for free.

According to former Glendale Mayor, Paula Devine, “The Field of Honor Memorial provides a stirring display of red, white and blue that is difficult to describe, but not to be forgotten.  The visual tribute made possible by Glendale Sunrise Rotary inspires the community to honor and remember all who serve or have served in the Armed Forces. I am honored to be a part of this wonderful event.”

"The beautiful, serene and meditative setting of Forest Lawn Glendale is a fitting location for our community to join in remembrance and honoring of our heroes – those who have and are serving in the military and as public safety first-responders and those who have lost their lives in service to others – a place to walk among the posted flags and remember what makes us great – service above self.” David Viar, Superintendent/President, Glendale Community College
