The Veteran Banners which you see along some streets of Versailles and Midway are a cooperative effort between Woodford Post 67, The American Legion and  these cities.  They are displayed at the descretion of the respective cities, usually around each Independence Day and Veterans Day.  There are more banners in Versailles than there are available places to display them.  Therefore, they are displayed on a rotation basis of 48 at a time.

Application

• The Veteran being honored does not have to be a resident of Woodford County.  However, the sponsor must be.
• The deadline for the 2026 application submission is April 30, 2026. 
• If you already have a banner you do not need a new application to display the banner in following years. 
• The fee for 2026 is $79.12 for Versailles banners and $48.65 for Midway banners.

Please see the application for further eligibility and application requirements.

The application is available at Woodford Post 67 or can be downloaded  below.

Hanging and Storing the Banners

The cities have sole control over hanging and removing the banners.  If there are more banners than there are places to hang them, not all banners will be displayed on each occasion  Also, specific banners are not hung on specific poles each time.  Your Veteran could pop up anywhere within the city for which they were bought and, at times, may not be seen at all.
