Each banner will list the honoree's name and the military branch in which the honoree serves.

The designated honoree must be currently serving as active duty in a full-time capacity in the United States Armed Forces (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, National Guard, or Navy) and currently reside in Yorba Linda or have an immediate family member (parent, spouse, son, daughter, or grandparent) residing in Yorba Linda.
Display Information
The banners are displayed from May 2023 through May 2024 for the 2023/2024 program.

Veteran Recognition Program
Are you, or an immediate member of your household, a veteran? Join the City of Yorba Linda and participate in this community program by displaying your veteran flag or banner. The Veteran Recognition Program is designed to honor and recognize Veterans living in Yorba Linda. The Veterans banners are 18" x 48" and are designed to be displayed on residences by affixing the banner to the eaves of the structure, patio cover, overhang, or other method. The flags are 3' x 5' and can be displayed using a traditional flag pole that many people use to display seasonal banners. Each flag/banner will state "A Yorba Linda Veteran Lives Here" and will have the logo of the military branch in which the veteran served. Banners are $25 each, and flags are $30 each.
Eligibility
Veterans who have served this country in the United States Armed Forces (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Navy, or Marines) and currently reside in Yorba Linda are eligible to participate in this program. Only one banner or flag is allowed per residence. If multiple veterans reside at one address, one banner/flag will recognize all individuals.
Display Information
Banners or flags may be displayed for an indefinite period of time but must be removed once they become worn and/or tattered.
Purchase Information
Banners and flags make great gifts showing community pride and your support for a veteran and can be purchased for friends or family members that reside in Yorba Linda. If you need financial assistance for this program or assistance installing a banner or flag, please contact the Parks and Recreation Department at 714-961-7160.
