The Dubois Free Press reports, everyone is invited to bring their worn flags to be properly disposed no matter the size. All veteran organizations will be represented during this honorable disposal of the US Flag.

The Pledge of Allegiance will be recited and a ceremony to remember POW's and MIA's will be held. A bugler will play 'to The Colors' and a 21-gun salute will follow to show respect for our country's worn flags. New flags will be available for purchase at this ceremony.

The DCVC would like to thank the 4H Council to allow the use of their facility, Dubois County Block and Brick for supplying blocks for the fire pit and the St. Anthony Fire Department for providing the safety for this event. Some bleachers will be available or you may bring your lawn chairs for this event.
