The University of Toledo\u2019s chapter of Student Veterans of America will conduct its annual Flag Retirement Ceremony at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, on the steps of Thompson Student Union.<\/p>\n

The event honors and properly retires American flags that have become worn and unserviceable through years of faithful service. The ceremony is free and open to the public, and community members are welcome to bring worn flags of their own to be retired.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s ceremony will be held in conjunction with\u00a0Cub Scout Pack 210, part of the Erie Shores Council, which helped prepare the flags in advance and will assist with the ceremony.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis event provides an opportunity for our military-connected students to teach young scouts about the importance of the American flag and the values it represents,\u201d said Kyle Jakob, coordinator of the\u00a0Toledo\u00a0Military Service Center\u00a0and adviser to Student Veterans of America.<\/p>\n
