Flags that are faded or have holes should be turned in for proper management of disposal; a collection box will be located outside the club at 12447 Mandarin Road from 7 a.m. \u2013 3 p.m. on Feb. 9 prior to the ceremony for those who would like their flag retired, but are unable to attend the ceremony that afternoon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The public is welcome and encouraged to attend this highly symbolic ceremony.
