Garnett Remembers started in 2016, is a very special community project that has brought together residents and extended family members from across the United States to recognize and the selfless sacrifices of these individuals whose faces adorn each banner.

 The banners are exhibited throughout Garnett on city utility and light poles. Military men and women who have served the United States Air Force, Army, Army National Guard, Coast Guard, Marines and Navy with ties to Garnett and Anderson County are represented on these banners that will proudly fly from prior to Memorial Day weekend through Independence Day (July 4), and will not be removed until the end of July.
  There are 320 banner honorees in all on 313 banners. The Garnett Remembers patriotic banner project, while facilitated by the Garnett Community Development Department, is made possible through the Garnett Community Foundation, with great emphasis on the work performed by City of Garnett Electric Department employees.
