The Program honors active-duty military personnel and military veterans that reside in or have immediate family residing in the City of Dublin, or have had a long-term, positive impact on the Dublin community. The Program allows for someone to sponsor a banner (for a fee) to honor an active-duty member or veteran. The banners feature a photo of the honoree along with their name, rank, and branch of service.The program has run annually since 2018 but was suspended in 2020 due to COVID-19. In this third year of the Program, 12 military personnel/veterans were honored. The banners were located on City street light poles along Dougherty Road between Scarlett Drive and Amador Valley Boulevard, in the vicinity of the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area, between Memorial Day and Veterans Day (May through November) 2021.
