Flags for Our Heroes: Gaithersburg’s Bohrer Park May 27th

Honoring Those Who Inspire Us

Every Memorial Day weekend since 2014, Gaithersburg’s Bohrer Park transforms into a Field of Honor. 750 8-foot-high American flags are flown to celebrate our heroes. Each flag represents someone who has made a difference in someone’s life, whether they’re a member of the military, police, firefighters, teachers, coaches, mentors, or community leaders.

This moving tribute allows visitors to honor their personal heroes by sponsoring a flag. The display is lit at night and can be enjoyed 24 hours a day. A formal opening ceremony will take place on Saturday, May 27 at 11 a.m. It’s a beautiful way to pay tribute to those who have shaped and inspired us.
