Claremont residents interested in replacing their worn or damaged American flags can stop by Memorial Park, 840 N. Indian Hill Blvd., from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Veteran’s Day, Monday, November 11, to exchange it for a new, American-made flag provided by Parker Lyn, a 13-year-old scout with Claremont Troop 408, as part of his Eagle Scout project.

Donated flags will be retired properly by members of Troop 408. Lyn is aiming to exchange 300 flags and benefit the Claremont American Legion Keith Powell Post 78. Sizes and quantities are limited on a first-come, first-served basis.
