for Flags are Available Each 30-foot flagpole is accompanied by a limestone base with bronze plaque and will be lighted from below. The state flags, flying beneath historic American flags as configured at the time of the state's admission, forms a unique educational exhibit - the name of the state, the year it joined the Union, its capital, and other state-specific information is inscribed on the plaque. Each flagpole's sponsor is recognized on a separate bronze plaque at the base. Currently, we have 44 sponsors of the 50 flagpoles. Sponsorship of a flagpole is $10,000. Answers to questions related to sponsoring a Flag or other types of financial support for the All Veterans Memorial are available by contacting the staff at the Great Overland Station during business hours at (785) 232-5533. Obtaining additional financial assistance remains an important task of Railroad Heritage, Inc., and the All Veterans Memorial Advisory Committee. Join the All Veterans Memorial

An
important element to the total All Veterans Memorial experience is
the opportunity to sponsor a flag in the Corridor of Flags. The Corridor of Flags outlines a
broad outdoor room, the BNSF Memorial Plaza, between the Great Overland Station and the All
Veterans Memorial. Fifty American flags proudly wave
above the flags of our fifty states, signifying America's unity of
spirit: E Pluribus Unum - "Out of many, one."
