Flag Dedication and Veteran Memorial Ceremony
Members of the Withlacoochee Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution participated in the flag dedication at The Academy of Environmental Science in Crystal River. The Chapter presented a flag that was secured through U.S. Senator Rubio, and flown over the U.S. Capitol on December 17, 2016. Compatriot Jack Townsend addressed the assembly regarding the presentation, Compatriot Bill Teater read and presented the framed dedication certificate, and Compatriot Norm Freyer presented the framed flag to a member of the student body. Civic, Patriotic and Veteran response to the lack of a U.S. flag at the Academy, generously donated funds that resulted in a 40-foot hurricane resistant flag pole, a secure base for the pole, a memorial marker and several flags.
