A burst of patriotic spirit filled the air as Melissa Rotary recently hosted a hands‑on flag repair workday, giving members a chance to restore worn American flags or retire appropriate flags.
Event Highlights
- Volunteers gathered to mend frayed edges, replace grommets, and prepare flags for continued display.
- Rotary members guided first time participants through simple repair techniques and shared tips on respectful flag handling.
- Flags damaged beyond repair were collected for proper retirement.
Why It Matters
Workdays like this strengthen civic pride while helping our community fly our American flags with dignity. All this is done in preparation for Melissa Rotary 2026 Flag Lease Program and America’s 250th anniversary.
