The City of Niles Parks and Recreation Department Hometown Banner Program is now in its second year after being created as a tribute to honor and recognize our current and past residents of Niles who are currently serving or have previously served in our country’s military forces.

   Each banner will honor one veteran or someone currently serving in the military. The banner measures 30” x 60” and is double sided. The banner will include picture, name and branch of service, and the name of the sponsor. Each banner will be displayed on a light post at specific
locations throughout the city. The banners will be displayed from Memorial Day 2023 through Veterans Day 2023. The banners will be able to be picked up by the sponsor after Veterans Day 2023 at the Wellness Center.

   There are approximately 120 spaces available. The first 120 fully completed, paid applications received will be placed in 2023. The fee for 2023 is $125.00.
