Celebrate Flag Day on Saturday, June 14th

Don't forget to take a moment to celebrate FREEDOM and the flag this Saturday! Catch the speedy painter between 1:06 - 1:12 in this music video.

In Waubeka, Wisconsin, in 1885 Bernard John Cigrand a nineteen year old school teacher in a one room school placed a 10” 38 star flag in an inkwell and had his students write essays on what the flag meant to them. He called June 14th the flag’s birthday. Stony Hill School is now a historical site. From that day on Bernard J. Cigrand dedicated himself to inspire not only his students but also all Americans in the real meaning and majesty of our flag.
