EDWARDSVILLE - The City of Edwardsville is inviting residents to assist in recognizing and honoring our city’s and surrounding area’s veterans and active military through banner sponsorship.
Those who sponsored a veteran last year will once again see those banners displayed on lampposts in addition to new banners that are obtained through sponsorship this year. The banners currently placed on the lampposts on Main Street and surrounding streets will be replaced with banners honoring these special men and women.
