Blue Star Memorial Sign

The sign reads:

BLUE STAR MEMORIAL HIGHWAY

A tribute to the Armed Forces
that have defended
the United States of America
Sponsored by
Texas Garden Clubs, Inc.
in cooperation with
Texas Highway Department
Seventh District of Texas Garden Clubs Inc.

This Blue Star Memorial marker was awarded the Hondo Garden Club in 1962 and placed on the Highway 90 parkway in Hondo with special plantings.  

We take great pride in keeping this special gift to our City, planted, blooming and a continual reminder of all the men and women serving our country to keep us free!

Pulling weeds is a constant project for garden club members

After we got all the weeds out, then the planting and mulching.

Gardening makes the heart feel good!
