Banners are still available for a recently launched veterans program in Hazleton, organizers said.
The program has generated considerable interest among the public since it was announced a few weeks ago, but organizers are reminding residents that they can purchase banners in honor of living and deceased veterans.
The nonprofit We Are Hazleton organization, which is overseen by sitting members of Hazleton City Council, is making the banners available through its Hometown Heroes Veterans Banner Program.
Banners cost $175 each and will be displayed along Broad Street for two years.
Organizers Lauren Sacco and Allison Barletta said residents have been inquiring about the program almost daily and are reminding the public that banners remain available.
