The Warwick Valley Rotary Club will display photo banners of local active-duty service members, reservists, National Guard members and veterans in the Villages of Warwick and Florida for three months between May and September.
Each 24-inch by 48-inch banner will feature a photo of a service member along with the name of the sponsoring family or business. The banners will be displayed on Oakland Avenue, Main Street, Maple Avenue and Forester Avenue.
Banner sponsorship is $200 for the first year. The cost to renew and re-display the banner is $150 per year. The Warwick Rotary will store the banners for renewal.
Those who don’t wish to renew after the first display period are free to keep their service member’s banner.
The goal is to sell 125 banners in Warwick and 75 banners in Florida. In 2023, the Rotary Club raised 45 banners in Florida and 125 in Warwick. Last year, the club raised 58 banners in Florida and once again sold out in Warwick, for a combined total of 183 banners.
The deadline to order is May 8.
