Cedar Rapids, Iowa – A new way to recognize a veteran or active service member is being unveiled by the Cedar Rapids Freedom Festival.
Applications for the Cedar Rapids Freedom Festival’s new Military Tribute Banner program will be accepted starting on Veterans Day.
The banners, which cost $250, will display active military personnel and veterans on a few light poles in downtown Cedar Rapids in the summer of 2025.
The design, installation, upkeep, and delivery to the receiver at the conclusion of the season are all included in each purchase.
The Freedom Festival’s website is where you may create your banner.
