The Pocomoke City Rotary Club is sponsoring the Flags for Heroes again this year. The date will be Saturday, May 25,, 2019 for Memorial Day. Anyone can nominate a hero (living or deceased) for recognition. It may be a soldier, a fireman, Emergency personnel, teacher or anyone who is held in high esteem by that individual.
Willie Jackson, Pocomoke Rotary President said, “Last year many flags adorned the area downtown beside the “Big American Flag”, and a very nice program honored all the recipients. The club was so proud to be a part of paying tribute to these special people. It is my dream to have American Flags on the entire path of Cypress Park, this year.”
A Flag will be flown, supplied by the club, with a $50 donation to the club. However, if someone sponsored a Hero last year they may sponsor heroes for $25 each. Each participant will receive a certificate in honor of their honoree. Colors will be presented, and a few words by the Mayor. Applications for nominating a Hero may be obtained from any Rotary from Members of the Pocomoke Rotary Club.
