The Hometown Heroes banner program will celebrate active military service members from Santa Clarita by decorating public spaces with festive banners.

The Santa Clarita Hometown Heroes Military Banner Program will allow the local community to decorate streetlights on major streets throughout the Santa Clarita community in neighborhoods like Canyon Country, Valencia, Saugus and Newhall.

The banners will feature the service member’s picture, name, rank and branch of the military they serve.

“Our goal is that every local hero be recognized,” said Santa Clarita City Councilmember Bob Kellar. “These banners are an excellent way to proudly share the names and faces of the men and women who serve our country and our community.”

Honorees must be active duty military personnel from the United States Armed Forces, must be a current Santa Clarita resident or an immediate family member of a current Santa Clarita resident and have lived in the Santa Clarita Valley at some point.

Banners can be purchased by individuals or organizations. For more information about the Hometown Heroes Military Banner Program, contact Kellar by email or click here.
