Today June 14, 2011 was Flag Day and there was a Flag Retirement Ceremony set in Fairfield Glade at The First National Bank on Peavine Road. Folks were encouraged to bring their torn, tattered and faded flags to the ceremony were they would be retired of properly in a ritual that treats our flag with respect and honor.
The Crab Orchard Chapter Daughters of the American Revoluntion sponsored the ceremony today for Flag Day. Celebrating 'Old Glory' ~
"I pledge allegiance
to the flag of the
United States of America, and to the
republic for which it stands, one nation
under God, indivisible, with liberty and
justice for all."
