Description
As we pause today to reflect on the service and sacrifices made by our veterans, we'd like to announce that Plymouth Township will be joining our neighboring communities in honoring our service members with the "Hometown Hero" banner program.
Anyone who would like to honor a military service member or first responder with a Hometown Hero banner in Plymouth Township should contact trustee Roger Stevenson (330-620-2540) or resident Kathy Jewell (440-344-1021).
Attached is a picture of a banner which is currently on display in Ashtabula Township. It honors Kathy's brother, Fred Andolsek, who served in the U.S. Army and Army National Guard.
The Plymouth banners will be 30 inches wide, and 60 inches long. They will be made of durable material, and although location cannot be guaranteed, the initial banners will be hung from utility poles along Plymouth Road. The honoree's photo, name, rank, branch or department, and era of service will appear on both sides of the banner.
Roger and Kathy will collect and confirm the pertinent information and order the individual banners from the printer/manufacturer. The plan is to begin hanging banners in the spring of 2027. The cost of the banners and associated hardware is approximately $175. Please contact Roger or Kathy to request an application.
Thank you again, to all of veterans!
