At a press conference this morning, the Gary Sinise Foundation officially announced they will hold a Dedication Ceremony for the specially adapted smart home being turned over to Officer Michael Flamion which will take place at 10:00 a.m. on November 21, 2017. 

The public is invited to attend the Dedication Ceremony, but to respect the privacy of the Flamions, tours of the home are available by invitation only. 

Due to the logistics of the event honoring Officer Flamion, and in preparation for the anticipated crowd size, the Ballwin Police Department also announced that Holloway Road between Kehrs Mill and Seven Trails will be temporarily closed.  The closure will begin at approximately 8:00 pm on Monday, November 20, 2017, and reopen at approximately 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 21, 2017.  Vehicle traffic should use Seven Trails Drive as a detour to access Holloway Road. 

The Dedication Ceremony is open to the public and shuttle services will be offered from the Target parking lot located at 15025 Manchester Road, Ballwin, MO. 63011, as well as the Hobby Lobby Parking lot located at 14650 Manchester Road, Ballwin, MO. 63021.  

The Ballwin Police Department appreciates your understanding as the community prepares to welcome Officer Flamion and his family home to Ballwin.  While it might not be possible for everyone to attend the ceremony, you can still take part in welcoming the Flamion family home by proudly wearing blue on November 21.

Questions regarding road closures should be directed to the Ballwin Police Department at 636-227-9636.
