The commander of Clinton American Legion Post 172 would like to invite everyone to an open house fundraiser and flag disposal ceremony on Saturday, June 14.

The open house fundraiser will run from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m., with the flag disposal ceremony at 12 p.m. at the American Legion Post home at 436 Spring Street in Clinton. The fundraiser is to help the American Legion Post raise funds to help the veterans of Clinton and Anderson County, and the flag ceremony is designed to ensure the proper disposal of all worn U.S. flags in accordance with the U.S. flag code.

Anyone interested in attending these events is welcome. Anyone having old, worn U.S., state, or any other type of flag that needs to be disposed, can drop them off at the office of the director of Anderson County Veteran Services in Room 114 of the Anderson County Courthouse, or bring it to the ceremony on Saturday, June 14.
