Celebration of Freedom

Mission Statement: To honor and support our veterans while fostering a sense of unity and patriotism within the El Dorado community through events, activities, and recognitions upholding the values of freedom, courage, and unity for generations to come.

The Celebration of Freedom committee consists of volunteers who donate their time and resources to support our veterans. They hold an annual celebration week in November that includes a parade, events, and various activities in celebration of veterans who served our country.

These events happen every year in November to help honor all veterans who have fought for us, died for us, and given us the right to be free! Throughout the week there are veterans recognized and celebration of those who have given so much! For more information follow the committee's Facebook page @CelebrationofFreedomKS. To be part of this dedicated committee and events, please contact the El Dorado Chamber of Commerce office.

The Celebration of Freedom committee invites the community to join in and appreciate all the support in unity throughout this very special annual dedication and celebration. Revisit the page in the future for the November 2024 schedule of events.
