Bearing gifts of flags

Members of the Sons of the American Legion and the Women’s Auxiliary believe every school classroom should have an American flag. They recently donated 84 flags to the Lake Orion School District. David Mennel, representing the 18th District Assn. made a presentation during the June 8 school board meeting. Anyone wishing to donate to the Sons of the American Legion Flag Fund can make checks payable to: Sons of the American Legion 18th District Assn, 6040 Dryden Road, Dryden, MI 48428. Write ‘Flag Fund? on noteline. In a related story, a new flag was given to Orion Oaks Elementary School. Three students at the school, Kaitlyn, Jeremy and Alex Bergeron, received a flag from their grandparents Fred and Anita. It had flown over the Pentagon in Washington DC. The grandparents had requested the flag be given to the school.
