American Legion

The US flag is an honored symbol of our nation. When a flag is no longer suitable for display, it should not be discarded. There is a proper procedure to retire it with honor.   

Flag retirement ceremonies will be conducted by the American Legion in Cle Elum, Washington on May 25th. Bob Grasmick, a member of American Legion Post 227, will be taking flags to the ceremony to be retired.

If you have a flag to be retired, call Bob at 206-364-9254 before May 22 to make arrangements to transfer the flag to him.
