Honoring Our Flag: US Flag Retirement Program
At PenAir Credit Union, we cherish the symbols of our nation’s pride and heritage. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce a new initiative aimed at honoring our American flag in a meaningful and respectful way — the Old Glory Boxes.
What Are Old Glory Flag Retirement Boxes?
Old Glory Flag Retirement Boxes are specially designated collection points located at every PenAir branch. These boxes are designed to gather old, tattered, or retired American flags. Instead of discarding these flags, we provide a dignified way to retire them in accordance with the United States Flag Code.
The American flag holds profound significance as a symbol of our nation’s unity, ideals, and history. By participating in our Old Glory Flag Retirement initiative, you contribute to preserving the respect and honor that these symbols deserve. Your involvement ensures that each flag receives a proper retirement ceremony, maintaining the integrity of its symbolism.
How You Can Participate
Join us in this meaningful endeavor by visiting any PenAir branch and depositing your retired American flags into our Old Glory Flag Retirement Boxes or by giving them to one of our team members. Our dedicated team will handle each flag with the utmost care and respect, ensuring they are retired in accordance with tradition.
At PenAir, we are committed to serving our community and upholding the values that our flag represents. Through initiatives like the Old Glory Flag Retirement Boxes, we demonstrate our dedication to honoring the symbols that unite us as Americans. Help us continue to honor our flag’s legacy by participating in our Old Glory Flag Retirement program. Visit your nearest PenAir branch to learn more about how you can contribute to preserving our nation’s symbols.
Together, let’s uphold the values of respect, dignity, and patriotism. Join PenAir Credit Union in honoring our flag through the Old Glory Flag Retirement program.
