Pints for Valor • June 25 6-8 pm at Tin Pen Alley
Helping every hero’s banner fly with pride
As the Town of Stuart launches the Hometown Hero Banner Program, we want every family to have the chance to honor their veteran or active‑duty hero — no matter their financial situation.
That’s why we’re hosting Pints for Valor on June 25.
Funds raised will help offset the $135 banner cost for families and will also cover banners for those who cannot afford one. No hero should be left out of this tribute.
Rotary will have Livin' performing live, and Tin Pen Alley will be serving up great food for everyone. A $5 donation will be collected at the door for the banner project, and 100% of donations will go directly to the Town to support veterans, service members, and their families.
Join us for a night of fellowship, gratitude, and community support —
Together, we help every hero’s legacy take flight.
❤️🤍💙

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I purchase additional banners?
Yes. Families may order additional banners for personal display.
Can I get my banner back?
Yes. Families may request the return of their banner at any time.
What kind of photo is required?
A high-resolution digital image, preferably in uniform. Printed photos should be scanned at a local business before submission. Photos are not enhanced — what you send is what will be used.
Where will banners be displayed?
Display locations are selected by the Town of Stuart based on safety and visibility.
What if my hero’s name is longer than 17 characters?
A 17-character limit (including spaces and punctuation) keeps formatting consistent across all banners. If the full name is longer, please shorten it — for example, use a first initial with the last name, or the last name only — and enter that version on the application.
Is a biography required?
No. A short biography (up to 75 words) is optional, but it is encouraged — the Town keeps these on file to preserve the history of our local heroes for future projects.
Who maintains the banners?
The Town of Stuart is responsible for the installation, maintenance, storage, and seasonal display of all banners during the program.
