Honor Flight Upstate South Carolina will be highlighted in both the parade and celebration, as its World War II honorees participate in the day’s festivities. Honor Flight Upstate South Carolina has flown nearly 800 World War II veterans to Washington, D.C., to see their memorial since its founding in 2007. They are currently raising money for a fall flight to take another seventy WWII veterans to Washington for the incredible experience.
