Unity Field at Steel Freedom Ranch
Our founder Joshua L. Holm and team were encouraged to honor our hometown heroes after attending an event in Granbury for Memorial Day Weekend with Gold Star Mom Gail Joyce. The time of reflection for those who have sacrificed for our countries freedom is something that really can't be explained instead it must be experienced. That is the reason we knew we had to have an event honoring America's veterans, first responders, and your hero what better time than around Veteran's Day. The flags and banners were displayed in the ranch field November 4th through Veterans Day 2023. Join us again in May and November. Want to be involved contact crystal@steelhope.org.
We Need Sponsors to help provide Hero Banners/Flags for Unity Field
May 17, 2025
2022 was our first Unity Field event and it was a moving one at that. The day was filled with music, car show, ceremony, live music, laughter, and lots of honoring and remembering. We can't wait to see you at this years event.
The program, named "Unity Field" is a poignant tribute designed to honor and remember the brave men and women who have served our country in the United States Armed Forces or First Responders. The event takes place during the months of Memorial Day and Veterans Day, two significant dates that commemorate the sacrifices and contributions of military personnel.
The Unity Field features a vast field adorned with 500 American flags, each meticulously arranged in rows and columns. These flags symbolize the unity, strength, and resilience of the nation, as well as the collective gratitude for the sacrifices made by veterans, first responders, and their families.
Leading up to the event, community members, organizations, and businesses are invited to sponsor hero banners and flags in honor of specific veterans, first responders or military personnel. Each flag is accompanied by a personalized tag, bearing the name, rank, branch of service, and additional information provided by the sponsor.
On Memorial Day and Veterans Day, the gate to Unity Field opens to the public, welcoming visitors to walk among the flags, reflect, and pay tribute to the heroes they represent.

November 2024, Unity Field hosted a powerful tribute to our fallen heroes: the traveling Global War on Terrorism Memorial Flag. This moving display honors the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in the ongoing fight against terrorism. As we welcome this memorial, we're also embarking on an important mission. In partnership with Veterans & Athletes United (VAU), we're raising funds to create a traveling Texas Memorial Wall for Steel Hope. This lasting monument will serve as a year-round reminder of the courage and sacrifice of our service members. By bringing this enduring tribute to Texas, we aim to provide a place for remembrance, reflection, and healing for veterans, families, and communities across our great state. Your support can help make this vision a reality, ensuring that the memory of our fallen heroes lives on for generations to come. Join us in this meaningful endeavor to honor those who gave everything for our freedom.
