Hastings American Legion Offers Flag Box For Retired Old Glories

HASTINGS-ON-HUDSON, N.Y. -- A new flag-deposit box is available for Hastings-On-Hudson residents to dispose of retired flags. 

The members of American Legion Post 1195 announced that the flag deposit box is available at the Legion Hall at 215 Farragut Ave. in Hastings-on-Hudson. Residents are encouraged to drop off tattered or weathered flags in the box so that they may be disposed of properly through a flag retirement ceremony, representatives said.
