Our veterans, members of our armed forces and the first responders has earned out appreciation by defending and protecting us in our community and around the world.  The 1,000 U.S. flag that will fly over the Merced College Front Lawn flag display is a gift to the community made possible by the dedicated Rotarians, volunteers, businesses and individual flag sponsors. You may support this meaningful event by sponsoring a flag to honor a person who has earned out thanks. Please join us in walking through the ordered rows and columns of the beautiful formation of flags.

The Merced Sunrise Rotary has chosen to honor veterans, active duty military, and first responders by placing more than 1,000 United States flags on the front lawn of Merced College. Many of those flags are acquired by community members to honor the service of someone they know. Proceeds from the event go back the community to support various causes: Honor Flights, Veterans groups, First Responders groups, and Castle Airport Museum.
