The Willmar Stingers and J.D. Kreps Financial Group have joined efforts to recognize local veterans in the community this summer.  During the Stingers home game on Tuesday, June 14th, nine local veterans will be honored at Bill Taunton Stadium as part of a Flag Day celebration, with each of them receiving their very own baseball card.  
 
The 1st 250 fans through the gates will also receive a complete set of baseball cards of these nine local heroes courtesy of J.D. Kreps Financial Group.

The card set will represent each branch of the military and honor those who are currently serving our country, veterans who have served in the past but are no longer active, and those who bravely fought for our country, but have since passed away.
