Yesterday was Flag Day, marking the start of our 3rd Flag Recycle! Every year, usually around Flag Day in June, we hold a collection for worn, tattered and well-loved flags. Once the flags are collected, we donate them to local Boy Scout Troops to be retired - often times at their summer camp programs.
This year, we are collecting flags until the 4th of July (well, because of the holiday weekend, July 1st) - and if you are one of the first 25 people to stop by the event, you can not only bring us your well-worn flag, but we will give you a replacement to fly in its place.
If you or a friend has a flag that needs to be retired come by our office - we will be open and collecting flags from 7:30am-5:00pm Mondays through Thursdays and from 8:00am-3:00pm Fridays! We hope to see you!
