Dropping off the flags.

 

Flag retirement program

Redondo Beach, CA

We had an old worn-out American flag after buying a new one and didn’t know how to properly dispose of it. Our family friend said there is a disposal box in front of the fire station where he works. So I figured I could make a flyer and ask the neighborhood if anyone else has one they wanted to get rid of. After my brother, sister and I collected a bunch of flags, we took them to the station and dropped them off in the box out front. Knowing that these “old glories” will be properly taken care of and won’t be thrown in the trash is a great feeling!
