Custom Street Pole Banners - Custom Feather Flags


Wednesday, June 25, 2014
Flag Day is celebrated in the month of June so people are already thinking of new ways to display the beloved banner.When Flag Day arrives, you might realize that your neighbors already had their flags ready but you weren’t able to make the necessary deadlines. You might also have set up already but wonder why they have better poles, banners and accessories. You can actually get ahead this year by knowing the right sources.The flag is best seen during the day when the sun readily gives it the needed light. You can raise the flag in the morning then lower it at night. Make sure that flag is folded properly after bringing it down.

You can also have a government agency raise the flag up to half mast only. This is usually done to show respect to the dead. The flag is brought to the top of the pole and then lowered to the middle. When retiring the banner at night, you can opt to put it at half-staff only instead. The flag features the blue canton and red and white stripes. Whenfolding the flag, the blue field should remain exposed. Start from thestriped end. Fold the flag into a triangle then keep repeating the process until the flag is fully folded up to the blue part. Finish until you reach the other end.You can have a local Boy Scout group burn the flag in a respectful manner if it is already old and deteriorating. The flag should never come in contact with the ground when used.
