Flag Fundraiser 2009
This is how we used to post flags two years ago for our flag fundraiser. The boys, then shortly the leaders, would pound rebar into the ground. Then we placed the PVC pipe with US flag on the rebar. The new method is so much easier. A piece of PVC pipe is pounded into the ground one time and capped. All we have to do is remove the cap and place the flag into the PVC pipe.
Flag Fundraiser
It is that time of year again. Troop 699's flag fundraiser is right around the corner. Get your annual subscription and you can have the Scouts of Troop 699 post an america flag in your lawn for four holidays a year. Funds go to support Troop 699 summer camp and our 2012 Philmont trek. We also need help selling flags and posting flag holders. Contact Sister Rasmussen for more information. Thanks to everyone who has helped.
