By submitting an order, I give my permission for a member of Troop/Crew 707 or 719 to place an American Flag mounted on a ten foot pole in my front yard on the following dates: President’s Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, July 4th, September 11th, and Veteran’s Day.

The preferred method for Flag mount will be insertion in the soil below grass/mow line. The flags will be posted at dawn and retrieved at dusk on each of the aforementioned days weather permitting.
