Third Annual Flag Day Ceremony at New Pond Village

This year marks the third anniversary of our annual Flag Day Ceremony.  We are fortunate to have local police and fire departments that are willing to lend a hand with the logistics.  This year we also had Sgt. Daniel Clark, aka, "The Singing Trooper" as part of the program.
