On Friday, March 23, the Cub Scout Pack 74 held a flag retirement ceremony.
The boys demonstrated how to properly retire a flag by separating the stars from the stripes and throwing each individual piece into the fire. Pack 74 also buried a time capsule, full of items chosen by the boys. Two representatives from Ormond Strong, Donna and James Fresquez, spoke at the ceremony.
