EUSTIS, Fla. – The Class of 2020 has had many special moments, including graduation, foiled by the coronavirus pandemic, but one organization is going out of its way to make sure the accomplishments of Lake County seniors are still celebrated.
Celebrating Heroes, a community outreach and military appreciation program known for creating and displaying special banners to honor military heroes, is designing custom banners for every graduating senior in the county -- nearly 3,000 students from eight public schools and several private schools in the area, according to a video explaining the initiative.
