United States Flag Retirement Ceremony

In recognition of all our Veterans and the sacrifices they have made we are holding another Flag Retirement Ceremony.  This is a solemn ceremony for all used US Flags.  If you have a flag that is in disrepair, dirty or no longer of use, we will properly dispose of it.  This ceremony is open to all citizens of our community.   If you have a flag that needs to be retired, please drop it off at the Post.  We have an old mail box that you can put your flag(s) in.
Any Scouts that would like to participate, please come in uniform and learn about the reason we do this ceremony the way we do.
