Utah County Centurion Awards

The Utah County Centurion Awards will honor Utah County veterans who have taken part in more than 100 military funerals.

The ceremony is Monday, November 9, 2026 at 6:00 PM at the Historic Utah County Courthouse, 51 S University Avenue, Provo.

A hundred funerals is a decade of standing in the cold at gravesides for families who are strangers — folding flags, firing volleys, sounding Taps. It is the kind of service that leaves no trophy and draws no crowd. This award exists because somebody noticed.

Post 72 members who render funeral honors are encouraged to attend.

Two awards will be given: 1) to honor guard members who have attended 100 to 499 military funerals; 2) to honor guard members who have attended 500+ military funerals.
RSVP ASAP to Rodney Gardner, Commander: text/call 385-335-0603.
Must be present to receive the award. Uniform with Garrison Hat.
