Town of Sherman, Mallory Town Hall, 9 Route 39 North, Sherman, CT 06784. 

The Sherman Veterans Association, with the support of the Town of Sherman, is offering for the first year the popular Hometown Heroes Banner Program. This program proudly recognizes active duty and veteran service members who have been honorably discharged, both living and deceased. Each banner honors a specific Sherman service member whether a current or past resident of the town and features his or her name, rank, branch of service, era of service (WWI, WWII, Vietnam, etc.), photo, and donor information (optional). Banners will be digitally printed on 18" x 36" 18 oz. blockout scrim vinyl (most durable and stable vinyl in the industry), printed the same on both sides and will be displayed on utility poles along Sherman Center. All orders must be received by March 1st to allow time for printing and installation by Memorial Day. Banners will cost $150 for one year or $200 for two years and will be displayed from Memorial Day to Veterans Day at which time they will be removed and placed in storage for the winter months. Banners that have been displayed after the one year or two year period may be returned to the donor at their request. Banners that have not been returned to the donor become the property of the Sherman Veterans Association and may be used for promotional purposes. Applications will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. If the maximum banner capacity is reached, applicants will be placed on a list for their banner to be displayed the following year. Requests for a specific display location will not be accepted. The Sherman Veterans Association will determine placement of the banners. The Sherman Veterans Association is not responsible for replacing banners that are stolen, damaged, or destroyed due to age, vandalism, or any acts of nature, including high winds. Any loss or damage to an installed banner will be handled at the discretion of the Sherman Veterans Association. The application can be downloaded by visiting the website <a target="_blank" href="https://www.hometownheroesbannerprogram.org/sherman" rel="nofollow">www.hometownheroesbannerprogram.org/sherman</a> or by stopping in at the First Selectman's Office at the Mallory Town Hall. Applications require the filled out form, a photograph copy of the hero preferably in military uniform, proof of honorable discharge, photo release acknowledgement and a check for $150 or $200, which will cover the printing and installation costs. Banners that have been displayed for a two-year period may be redisplayed for an additional two years by purchasing a new banner at a cost of $100. Even if you were not honoring a veteran, donations to support this effort would be welcomed to help offset costs. The application form, photograph copy of the hero preferably in military uniform, proof of honorable discharge, photo release acknowledgement and check made out to the Sherman Veterans Association (please add "Sherman Hometown Heroes" in the memo line) must be submitted together and mailed to: Town of Sherman, Mallory Town Hall, 9 Route 39 North, Sherman, CT 06784. Profits from the program will be used to help support the mission of the Sherman Veterans Association.
