Honoring hometown heroes during the annual Dugout Days celebration

As Sutton gets ready for Dugout Days, June 25 through 28, the Sutton Chamber of Commerce is working on a project to recognize veterans from the community as part of this year’s theme, “From Founding Fathers to Hometown Heroes.” Not in a broad, national way, but in a way that feels closer to home. The kind where many of the names will be familiar, and the stories even more so.

This year, the focus is on Sutton High School graduates who have served in the military. It’s a starting point, shaped by the time and resources available, and one the Chamber hopes to build on over time.

They are also asking for the community’s help.
