Sonora, CA — Standard Park is lined with flags, and the community is invited to come out and view the Field of Honor through Veterans Day (Tuesday).
It is a project of the Sonora Sunrise Rotary Club. Event chairperson Lisa Dasko states, “The Field of Honor is a collection of flags that we dedicate to local Veterans, active duty military, or first responders. The Sonora Sunrise Rotary has been doing this for four years.”

Opening ceremonies were held over the weekend, featuring several speakers, including local Veteran Frank Smart, Shane Warner of Columbia College Fire, Jamie Franklin Horses of Warriors, Tuolumne County Sheriff David Vasquez, Rotary members, and others.
