Post 7262 Auxiliary donates flag
Arcanum Butler School District...
ARCANUM – “I put the flag up and down every day. Our flag was damaged
in the hail storm. We are asking for a new flag so we don’t show
disrespect to the school and the U.S. A.” said Kevin Kimball an Arcanum
Butler sixth grader. Kimball sent his letter to Greenville’s Ladies’
Auxiliary to VFW Post 7262 on April 25, introducing himself and
requesting a flag be donated to the Arcanum Butler School.
The ladies of the Auxiliary make it a part of their patriotic service
to donate flags for schools when requested. Arlene Meyers, Junior
Vice-president and Patriotic Instructor for Ladies’ Auxiliary to VFW
Post 7262 presented the requested flag to the school with Kimball and
Principal Mr. Tibbens present.
“Kevin helped lower the old flag, fold it, and then lift the new one,”
said Meyers. “This was just a great experience to see a student take
such an interest in patriotism!”
