Salinas Hometown Heroes Banner Program is proud to honor the service and sacrifice of our local heroes. We're a nonprofit organization that creates custom-made banners featuring their names and photos, which are then displayed along the city's main streets. Join us in showing appreciation to those who have bravely served our nation.

The mission

The Mission

The mission of the Salinas Hometown Hero Banner Program is to honor veterans and active-duty service members who call or have called Salinas home with a display of banners along Oldtown's Main Street.

Veterans

Veterans

To have your or your loved one’s banner displayed as part of the Salinas Hometown Heroes Banner Program, simply submit a photograph in uniform, along with the name and branch of service, to the Salinas Hometown Heroes Banner Committee. These personal banners will be proudly showcased along South Main Street in Oldtown.

We now have a 10-week installation in the spring, from May through July 4th, and a 6-week installation in the fall, from October through Veterans Day week. The same banners displayed in the spring will also be featured in the fall. It’s a wonderful way to honor and pay tribute to our local heroes.
