Shawnee is proud to be home to veterans and to men and women currently serving in our military. We are excited to launch the Hometown Hero Project so our community can show support.

The banners are displayed on the streetlights along Nieman Road between 55th Street and Shawnee Mission Parkway and along Johnson Drive between Caenen and Melrose. Registration for 2023 will open in May. The banners will be up from August through November.

Veterans and their families will have the opportunity to pick up the banners to keep after they are taken down in November.
