Valley man plans ahead for Flag Day
CANFIELD, Ohio (WKBN) — As the Valley observes those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country on this Memorial Day — a local man has his eyes on another patriotic event.
Berlin Center resident Mike Young says he has secured the use of the Village Green in Canfield to hold a Flag Day celebration on Saturday, June 14. He said he came up with the idea as a way to show the Valley's patriotic spirit for our nation's Stars and Stripes.
'Well, I've just always been supportive of our country and our military and our flag and I just, with Flag Day coming up on June 14, I just thought this would be a good opportunity for the folks in the community and the whole valley here to just come out and show their support for our American flag,' Young said.
The Flag Day celebration will be held from 10 a.m. until noon on the Green and will be free and open to the public.
'We're just asking people to come out there, bring your American flags, and we're just going to have our flag waving and just stand out there in celebration of the country and American Red, White and Blue,' Young said.
