National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona – Annual Flag Placement

Hello Troop 648

As a reminder, join hundreds of volunteers from across the state in honoring our veterans by placing United States flags on over 50,000 grave markers covering 225 acres! This process, while sounding a bit daunting, takes under an hour and is one of the most important events we help with throughout the year.

The event is held this Saturday, May 23 and begins with a flag ceremony at 7:00am. Meet other members of the troop 648 family near the main flag pole and next to the wall with all 5 military branch seals.

Address to the National Memorial Cemetery is 23029 N. Cave Creek Rd. Head north on 19th avenue, turn right on Deer Vally road. The cemetery is in the southeast corner. Parking is available along the roads within the cemetery.

Please wear your Class A uniform and bring your family and friends!

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday!

Scoutmaster T648
