The City of Fishers held its annual Veterans Day ceremony on Wednesday, Nov. 11, honoring local veterans and their families.

The ceremony began at 11 a.m. in the Theater at Fishers Municipal Center, 1 Municipal Drive, and was scheduled to run until 1 p.m., according to the city's event listing. The event was free and open to the public, and the city planned to livestream it on its YouTube channel for those who could not attend.

Retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Tim Winslow delivered the keynote address. Winslow is executive director of the Indiana War Memorials and Museum, overseeing the Indiana World War Memorial Historic District in downtown Indianapolis, and also serves as assistant director of the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs.

Winslow served more than 37 years in the military, including two combat deployments, and once served as interim adjutant general of the Indiana National Guard. He was commissioned through Purdue University's Army ROTC program.

The city also offers other ways to honor veterans year-round, including veteran banners on light poles around the Central Green and engraved bricks at Liberty Plaza.
