Homefront America Presents Field of Honor®
Mission San Juan Capistrano, May 21 to May 27, 2024
Field of Honor is about bringing people together to show their patriotism and pride in what makes America great and to experience something positive and meaningful. It is about uniting communities and educating our youth, raising public awareness, and showing gratitude to our military, veterans, and first responders, including K-9 and equine heroes. The sacrifices endured by these selfless heroes to safeguard our way of life and communities are immeasurable.
This May, the beautiful grounds of Mission San Juan Capistrano will again transform into an awe-inspiring Field of Honor. The stunning pageantry of (3’ x 5’) Stars and Stripes, each standing 7’ tall in solemn formation, fluttering proudly and majestically in the warm mid-day breeze, will move you and take your breath away. No words can adequately describe such an impressive display. It must be experienced in person to truly appreciate its full impact. Once seen, the emotionally filled imagery will leave an indelible impression.
We invite you to bring your family, friends, and neighbors to view this spectacular sea of red, white, and blue and to reflect and learn about the heroes behind the flags. This is an event not to be missed. The sight is awe-inspiring. The experience is life-changing.
There are multiple sponsorship opportunities for individuals, businesses, and organizations to honor their special hero(es) or to simply show their gratitude for those who willingly put themselves in harm’s way to protect our cherished freedoms and liberties. Proceeds from the Field of Honor go to benefit Homefront America’s programs for military families.
Complimentary admission is available for military, veterans, and first responders to enjoy the Field of Honor. Flag sponsors will also receive complimentary general admission tickets to enjoy the Mission. The number of tickets varies with each sponsorship level.
We gratefully acknowledge Mission San Juan Capistrano for its support in providing the beautiful venue to host the 2024 Homefront America Field of Honor.
