City of Pottsville issued the following announcement on Oct. 14.
The City of Pottsville has a long-standing patriotic tradition of displaying American flags in the City. Each year, Seventy-Six flags fly from Memorial Day until Veteran’s Day. Those flags, in conjunction with our hometown Hero banners remind residents and visitors of our shared history, national pride, and the sacrifices that local heroes have made to protect our freedom.
The City would like to invite residents, business partners, schools and community organizations to join in our American tribute. Flags can be adopted for a fee of $30. Flags will be placed by Memorial Day 2021 and will be retired shortly after Veterans Day 2021. Application forms will be available on line or in the office of the City Administrator. A special tribute will be placed in the Rotunda of City Hall recognizing all those who have adopted a flag to adopt a flag. The application period will run from October 13th, 2020 until April 30, 2021.
