June 14 is Flag Day

 

In May 1916, Woodrow Wilson made the proclamation for June 14 as Flag Day. Legend says Betsy Ross created our first flag of stars and stripes in anticipation of our independence in 1776. Today, these boys, Hudson Eitzmann (left) and Barrett Bruns (right), of the Superior Youth Athletic Association, ceremonially fold a flag. You will also notice flags around downtown proudly placed by Superior Elks Lodge members.
