THE PROGRAM:
In an effort to acknowledge and honor the Active-Duty Military members and the Redmond families that support them, Redmond City Councilor Krisanna Clark-Endicott successfully advocated to her colleagues on the Redmond City Council to create an appreciation program for the Redmond community. This program is intended to provide an opportunity for friends and family members to recognize people in the Redmond community who are currently full-time active service members.
There is no cost to participate.
The City of Redmond invites all full-time active-duty service members and their family, friends, and colleagues to participate and celebrate their commitment to the United States Armed Services. These individuals will have their name, photo and service affiliation showcased on monitors inside the Redmond Municipal Airport Terminal where nearly one million passengers come and go each year.
The banners remain up while the military service personnel are on active duty for the period of (1) year.
ELIGIBILITY:
