Flag Day

Posted

The United States flag, symbol of our liberty and freedom, was officially adopted by our country on June 14, 1777. Next Friday, June 14 is Flag Day; please fly your flag that day to celebrate “Old Glory”.

Also, please consider attending one of the many scheduled Flag Day observances in your community. Every Elks Lodge across the country will be commemorating Flag Day with their Flag Day and Flag Retirement ceremony; the service is informative, patriotic, free and open to the public.
