Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

Remembering the Veterans
The names on these granite titles are of deceased veterans who had lived in San Benito County or were members of San Benito County families. You'll find these remembrance tiles on the sidewalk in front of the Veterans Memorial Building in downtown Hollister.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Hollister Post 9242 and the City of Hollister co-sponsor the San Benito County Deceased Veterans Remembrance Tile installation. If you're interested in purchasing a tile in memory of a Veteran, you can get an order form at the Hollister City Hall. For more details, click on this link.
