OHRS 2024 Recap
Operation Honor: Rural Salute™ was a resounding success, as the community of Fulton County, PA, came together to celebrate and honor our veterans, no matter the weather. Rain or shine, attendees showed up in force to support local vendors, enjoy fantastic music, and listen to inspiring speakers. The McConnellsburg Bandshell grounds were a sight to behold, with nearly 3,000 flags lining the area, each one representing a veteran from our county. The visual tribute was both moving and powerful, highlighting the deep respect and gratitude our community holds for those who have served.
A special thank you to our amazing photographers and videographers who captured all the fun: Stover Photography, Molly Lake, Chad Schulze, and Charlie McMclanahan.
We can't wait to see everyone again in 2025 for another incredible Operation Honor: Rural Salute™ event. The enthusiasm and community spirit displayed this year set a high bar, and we are already looking forward to making next year’s celebration even more memorable. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to this wonderful tribute to our veterans.
