FRIENDS OF FSNHS EXTEND 2019 FLAG SUBSCRIPTION DEADLINE

The Friends of Fort Scott National Historic Site Inc. have extended the deadline to sign-up for a subscription to the U.S. Flag Project an additional 10 days. Requests for a 2019 subscription are due by April 10.

The Friend’s U.S. Flag Project provides homeowners and businesses, within the city limits of Fort Scott, the opportunity to fly the Stars and Stripes on five different flag holidays without the hassle of purchasing, erecting, and storing a flag and pole. You don’t even have to remember the holiday!

For $35 annually, the Friends will install a 3’x5′ flag on a 12 foot staff at your home or business on each of the following Flag Holidays in 2019:

Memorial Day, May 27th

Flag Day, June 14th

Fourth of July, July 4th

Labor Day, September 2nd

Veteran’s Day, November 11th

Applications can be obtained at the Fort Scott Area Chamber of Commerce or can be requested by e-mail at [email protected].

All proceeds support programs at Fort Scott National Historic Site. These include: Symbols of Sacrifice, a Citizenship Ceremony, Candlelight Tour, Youth Engagement, and many others.

Show your patriotism and help our local National Park by lining the streets of Fort Scott with our nation’s symbol!
