The deadline is Oct. 14 to honor veterans by having their names engraved on commemorative bricks as part of the city of Hayden's commemorative brick program and 2022 Veterans Day installation.

The Hayden Veterans Commission offers area residents opportunities to place veterans' names on brick pavers as part of the PFC Robert J. Gordon Veterans Memorial Plaza in front of Hayden City Hall.

Naming rights may be purchased for $100.

To qualify to have a veteran’s name placed on a paver:

• The veteran must be currently serving or have served under honorable conditions in the United States Armed Forces. DD-214 forms or other qualifying documentation of honorable service is required. Military personnel discharged prior to 1940 and organized military groups are exempt from this requirement.

• Residency in Hayden is not required.

• Hayden conducts two installations per calendar year: Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
