Honor Flights
Honor Flights recognize American Veterans for their sacrifices and achievements by flying them to Washington, DC to see their memorials at no cost. Brushy Creek Area Honor Flight is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based out of Fort Dodge that arranges Honor Flights for eligible Veterans in Iowa. The all-day trip provides an incredible experience, and Veterans are encouraged to apply. Handicap assistance is available.
