The City of Medicine Lodge is excited to announce a second and FINAL round of Veteran’s Banners!
Submissions will be accepted from now until September 19, 2025.
The City of Medicine Lodge is proud to honor the voices of our citizens while also paying tribute to our local heroes. In response to community feedback, we are creating another round of downtown banners along the Main Street Corridor to recognize and celebrate veterans who call Medicine Lodge home.
If you missed honoring your veteran in the first round, this is your opportunity—50 spots are available and will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Eligibility
Honorees must be current or former residents of Medicine Lodge who have lived in the area for at least 3 years.
Veterans may be actively serving or retired.
Each submission must include the military branch in which the honoree served (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard, etc.).
Veteran Stories Welcome!
We would be honored to share the stories of our veterans with the community. Any stories submitted will be displayed beneath the banner poles on Veterans Day as part of our tribute.
In keeping with seasonal changes, this round of banners will be displayed after the Peace Treaty Festival and remain up until the holiday banners are installed.
All banners will be retained by the City of Medicine Lodge and displayed again the following summer in alternating order. For example, if a banner was up for Memorial Day this year, it will be displayed for Veterans Day the next year, and vice versa.
Donations & Sponsorships
Please don’t hesitate to submit a veteran due to financial concerns—our community is full of generous individuals eager to support and honor our heroes. A suggested donation of $25 helps sponsor a banner, but donations of any amount are welcome. Donations can also be made without designating a specific veteran.
Venmo: @JulieWarner (username: jkwarner28) – include “Veteran Banner Donation – [veteran’s name]” in the memo
In person: City of Medicine Lodge, 114 W 1st Ave, Medicine Lodge, KS – mark payment with “Veteran Banner Donation” and let us know if you are sponsoring a specific veteran
The City of Medicine Lodge is proud to uplift and honor the brave individuals who have served our community and our country. Thank you for helping us make this project possible!
Submission Deadline: September 19, 2025. Sign up online https://form.jotform.com/251416940620148
