Beginning July 1st, the Exchange Club of Daniel Island will proudly host their 3rd annual Field of Honor® display of U.S. flags. The Stars and Stripes will stand posted in a memorable display of red, white and blue on the grassy lawn of River Landing Drive.  500 full sized flags will fly on seven and a half foot flagpoles to honor your heroes including military, veterans, first responders, teachers and hometown heroes.

The Daniel Island display is a gift to the community made possible through donations, sponsorships and the efforts of many dedicated volunteers. You can show your support and gratitude by sponsoring a flag or making a donation HERE .  For $25 per flag you can honor individuals who, through their service and sacrifice, have become heroes in your life.  If you prefer, stop by our onsite sales tent to place your order in person. The onsite sales tent will be located at the “Field of Honor®” on River Landing Drive and is scheduled as follows:

- Monday, July 2nd, 10:30 AM to 5:00 PM
- Tuesday, July 3rd, 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM
- Wednesday, July 4th, 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM
