CANCELLED: Stars of the Banner 2024 Celebration

The community celebration of the Stars of the Banner and the Hometown Heroes has been cancelled.  If you are a winner or finalist of the 2024 Stars of the Banner or a 2024 Hometown Hero award winner, please watch for information to follow soon about a future celebration.

Come join the fun on Thursday, May 23, 2024 at the Gerry Boyle Park at Great Marsh for a FREE, community-wide event presented by the Dorchester Banner to celebrate all the Stars of the Banner Winners and Finalists. This celebration will include live music by Tranzfusion, food vendors, on-stage presentations of the Hometown Heroes awards, "Winners Circle" where Stars winners can pick up their award, exhibits from some of the Stars and finalists, door prizes and more! Admission is free and everyone is welcome to attend. We will be giving away a limited number of cupcakes, and food will be available for purchase from ThaiTalian Infusion Cuisine, Scottish Highland Creamery, The Red Shef, That Kitchen, Simmons Center Market, Lil' Bitta Bull Pit Stop, Mrs. Martins Cookies and K&S Lemonade. Plus, the Dorchester Chamber Foundation will have beer and wine for sale to benefit the Dorchester Chamber Foundation Scholarship Fund. The door prizes offered by the Dorchester Banner will feature local-themed gift items that we selected especially for the Stars of the Banner Celebration.
We appreciate the support of all our sponsors: Chesapeake Utilities, Cambridge Waterfront Development Inc., Cambridge Harbor, State Farm – Megan Holotik Agent, TreeHouse Foods, Mallard Bay Nursing & Rehab, and Hometown Heroes Sponsor Choptank Electric Cooperative. We couldn’t have put on this party without them all!
Look for the Stars of the Banner keepsake booklet in the May 1 edition of the Dorchester Banner or online at BayToBayNews.com/Dorchester/SpecialSections. It will include the complete list of Stars winners & finalists, in addition to this year's Hometown Heroes.
The event rain date is Thursday, May 23, 2024. Same time. Same location. Don't miss the fun! Bring your blanket or lawn chair and enjoy an evening of music, food, and community fun!
