Flag Day Ceremony and Retirement Training
Flag Day Ceremony
and
Flag Retirement Training
On Flag Day, June 14, Mountaineer Area Council is offering an opportunity for individuals and units to join us at Camp Mountaineer to learn about flag etiquette, appropriate ways to conduct a flag raising and lowering ceremony as well as one of the ways to properly retire a US flag. The goal is to provide hands-on training so units can feel comfortable conducting their own flag ceremonies and flag retirements.
The flag retirement ceremony will be hosted by the Westover VFW Post 9916.
