HAYDEN — Now is the time to honor veterans through Hayden's commemorative brick program.

The city of Hayden Veterans Commission is offering community and area residents the opportunity to place the names of veterans 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. The deadline is Monday.

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 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.

The city has two installations per calendar year: Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
