Field of Valor
The Eastern
Shore Exchange Club is proud to present its second annual
Field of Valor at the USS ALABAMA
Battleship Park beginning November 7
through November 11, 2009. The Field of Valor is a memorial display
of 3 by 5 foot flags on eight foot poles in perfect rows and columns.
Each
flag will be available for individual sponsorship to honor or
memorialize someone who has served our country in the armed forces,
as a police officer,
firefighter or in any other capacity that you may wish to recognize.
The
cost of an individual sponsorship is $25.00. If you would like
your flag mailed to you after the event, please include $5.00 for
shipping
and handling.

Due to the
success of last year’s inaugural 200 flag Field of Valor, this
year’s field will be increased to 300 flags.
The public is encouraged to view the flags and honor those recognized
at the event. The flags will be removed after the event and used
throughout the year to promote Americanism at other patriotic
events.
Corporate sponsorships are also available.
Funds raised will be distributed among the various projects of
the Eastern Shore Exchange Club including other Americanism
projects and the
funding of agencies related to child abuse prevention including Care House, the Baldwin
County Child Advocacy Center, and the
Exchange Club
Family Center of Mobile.
