American Flag Collection in Ellington

How should you dispose of an American flag that is beyond repair?

State Representative Christopher Davis, who represents Ellington, in collaboration with American Legion Post #62 and Post #40, invites residents to retire "worn" and "unserviceable" American Flags at two locations in town.

From now until Monday June 10, Ellington residents may drop off flags at:

Hall Memorial Library; and
Ellington Town Hall
