Sonoma County Field of Honor

The Sonoma County Field of Honor was founded in 2024 by Brody Hansel. Inspired by
Healing Fields across the United States, this Field of Honor is intended to pay tribute to
veterans, active military and first responders. As these individuals have risked their lives to
ensure the safety and freedoms of ours, we honor them. In 2024, 1000 flags will be flown in
the names of loved ones sponsored by family and friends throughout the North Bay.
Proceeds from the sponsorship of flags are directed to support Veterans Services.

The Field of Honor is open to the public daily from 10 am – 2 pm November 10 through 16,
2024. An Opening Ceremony will be held November 10 from 11 am – 2 pm. Closing
Ceremonies and Flag Retirement will be held November 16 from 11 am – 1 pm. In
partnership with Wing and Barrel Ranch, the public is encouraged to visit the field,
experience the enormity of patriotism and honor those that have sacrificed.

Flag sponsorship can be made by visiting: www.sonomacountyfieldofhonor.org
Sonoma County Field of Honor looks forward to a legacy of honoring our Veterans, Active
Duty Military and First Responders for many years to come.

Thank you for your support.
Sonoma County Field of Honor is a 501C3

Asbestos Dangers

Asbestos is a material that was widely used in many building materials which are still found around us today. While it is still in use in a few different materials today, much of its use was stopped in the late 1980s after research revealed the negative health effects associated with its fibers. Many people have heard that asbestos is bad for human health, but do not understand how or why this is the case.

Embracing Change in the Workplace

Change can be good or bad, depending on what the change is and, more importantly, how you react to it. Change is a fact that is inevitable, and we all need to deal with it as best we can. Individuals who adapt and embrace change are the ones who continue to thrive, whether that is at home or in the workplace.
