Each sign can be purchased for $20.00 and will be due at the time of the order. The City of Frankfort can only accept cash or checks. Please make the checks payable to the City of Frankfort.
Mayor Sheets commented, “I wanted to find a way to honor our Veterans in the community since I first took office. This is a great opportunity for our community to honor and thank all of the members of the Armed Forces who have served our great country. They have sacrificed so much over the years and it is time that the City of Frankfort does our part in honoring them. I am excited to see all of the signs in Veterans Park in November.”
Veterans can pick up the signs after the Veterans Day Program and place them in their own yard or landscaping. “I know our community has many Veterans and this is a great opportunity to honor them. I’m hoping our community and visitors that drive-thru Frankfort notice the signs at Veterans Park and all over Frankfort after the 11th and see the impact our community members have given to our great nation, said Black.”
