Poultry Days Flag Raising Ceremony
Each year Poultry Days holds it annual flag raising ceremony in front
of the school board office at the festival. This event is
intended to be a moment of reflection for those who have served and an
opportunity for the Chairmen and Miss Chick to welcome visitors.
This year there will be several changes to the ceremony. First
the Versailles, American Legion/VFW Post will be joined by members of
the Versailles High School Band. The band will provide musical
support to the event which includes the national anthem.
The festival board practice of beginning meetings with the pledge has
led to inviting Congressmen Warren Davidson to lead us in reciting the
pledge at Poultry Days. We also expect to be joined by Ohio
Representative Susan Manchester, County Commissions, the Mayor of
Versailles, and members of Village Council. We invite visitors
and the community to join us at 4pm on Friday, June 14th for this
ceremony.
Visitors are welcome to use seating placed in the area or bring their
own chairs to enjoy music by the Versailles Community Band which will
perform from 6-7pm after the ceremony. Poultry Days is proud to
support our military and first responders, both past and present.
Versailles welcomes visitors to the annual Poultry Days June
14-16th. A full schedule of contests and activities can be
located at www.versaillespoultrydays.com.
