Flower Mound residents are invited to cheer on the participants in the Flower Mound Veterans Day Relay on Veterans Day, November 11. Throughout the day, participants commemorate our nation's veterans and their service by carrying the American flag on a pre-determined route around Town. The route takes runners by each Lewisville ISD school in Flower Mound, to provide an opportunity for students to encourage the runners. The Veterans Day Relay Run ends with a post-event celebration at the Community Activity Center, and is open to the public. To view the route, please click here.
