Who We Are

The Texas South Plains Honor Flight is an all-volunteer organization that honors the service of our local area veterans with an all-expense paid three-day trip to Washington D.C. to visit their war memorials. This year will mark the 7th annual Honor Flight Trip that is made possible with the support of the entire South Plains community.

 

         Veterans on the chartered Southwest Airlines jet will travel to Washington DC to visit many of the major military memorials, including the Work War II, Korea, and Vietnam Memorials, and three military museums dedicated to their service. They will participate in wreath-laying ceremonies at many of the venues including the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. U.S. Rep. Jodey Arrington, who represents much of the South Plains and West Texas, and his staff, will welcome the veterans to Capitol Hill.

           

         Texas South Plains Honor Flight Committee volunteers work all year to raise the $220,000 that is needed to sponsor this event. This trip is only possible through the generous donations of South Plains residents, businesses, and organizations.
