For the Reporter

Prestige Senior Living at Auburn Meadows celebrates National Flag week with an opportunity for local residents to exchange worn-out U.S. flags for new ones, free of charge beginning June 13.

Prestige invites community members to stop by at the Meadows, 945 22nd St. NE, from Monday, June 13, through Friday, June 17, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Residents can receive a brand-new American flag in exchange for their worn-out or used flags throughout the week. The flag exchange is limited to the supply of flags, and reservations are available.

To properly dispose of worn flags, Prestige has partnered with the American Legion for a ceremonial disposal of the retired flags at a later date.

To reserve your flag in advance, please call Kasey Krist-Johnson at 253-333-0171.
