Flag Retirement Collection Box

Francisco and his helpers installed a permanent outdoor collection box to receive deteriorated flags at Doral Veterans Park. On each side of the box, information boards inform visitors of the U.S. Flag Code and proper flag care, etiquette, and disposal. The surrounding area was beautified with red, white, and blue landscaping. To this day, the project yields thousands of flags of all sizes which are collected by the local Boy Scout troop for proper disposal.
