Listen to this Travel down State Street and surrounding streets to see the Hometown Hero banners dedicated to men who served their country. Currently there are 22 banners with 12 of those new this year. The banners have a picture of the person who served and their branch of service. The banners depict not only men but woman can also have a banner to recognize their service. The banners are hung the first week of May in observance of Memorial Day and will remain hanging until Veteran’s Day in November. “Clarks Summit resident Cindy Coleman saw the banners elsewhere and brought the idea to the Clarks Summit Borough Council,” said Gerrie Carey, Clarks Summit Borough Council president. “We thought it was a good idea and decided to move forward with it. These young men went to serve our country in time of conflict. Many were drafted. Once a year, we memorialize these veterans and recognize them with a banner.”
