Elgin Township supervisor, others commended for Flag Day event
I would like to extend my thanks to Ken Bruderle, Elgin Township supervisor, for his assistance with Flag Day celebration on June 14. He publicized the event, arranged transportation for the senior citizens and even included chairs for seating.
The Elks Club did a great job of recalling the history of the flag and how it came to be. It was a reminder that the American flag is more than a just piece of cloth.
It was a windy day but the young Explorer Scouts were there to hold the flags steady. Good training for future adult citizens.
