Thank you - O’ville parks and recHappy Veterans Day!
Did you know?...The Honor Flight Network was formed in 2005 by Jeff Miller and Earl Morse with a mission of honoring our nation’s veterans by bringing them to Washington, DC to visit the memorials and monuments dedicated to their service and sacrifice. Since its formation, the Honor Flight Network has taken more than 245,000 veterans to Washington D.C. Today, the Honor Flight Network is currently comprised of over 128 hubs throughout the country dedicated to carrying out the Honor Flight mission and the Network, as a whole, serves over 22,000 veterans each year.
Franklin County Honor Flight- Missouri is our local hub and their website is fchonorflight.org/.
OPRD staff want to thank the brave men and women who have served or are currently serving! Thank you for your sacrifices!
REMINDER:
City of Owensville City Hall and offices are CLOSED today (11/11/22) in observance of Veterans Day. #veteransday2022

Did you know that this chapter was the first west of this Mississippi? Yup, it’s true. In fact we helped to establish the Greater St Louis chapter after we paved the way!
Thank you to all those you have helped make our 2022 Honor Flight season a huge success. It was such a blessing to be able to return to normal operations.
Please enjoy this clip care of Gerald-Rosebud FD as half of the October flight was welcomed back into Franklin County this past Sunday.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Day 2 - October 2022
When I did the Honor Flight with my dad about eight years ago, it not only became one of the very, most significant memories of his life but mine as well. I miss him everyday. Thank you!
Awesome job guys it's such a honor to know some of the people who volunteer for the Honor Flight. Totally humbled
Thank you Honor Flight! SO glad my dad got to do this several years ago.
See you all tonight
Thank you all for your service!
