Arcadia Rotary's inaugural "Field of Honor" displays 1000 U.S. flags at Arcadia County Park. It is an impressive display of patriotism. Flags are sold for $50 to anyone who cares to remember a loved one or service member. It is a Rotary fundraising effort to benefit numerous area charities including Boys and Girls Club.
Rio Hondo School's American flag, which once flew at American bases in Iraq, will be deployed with troops in Afghanistan. Students Johnny Luong and Stephanie Li fold the flag before presenting it to Army Major Williams Darwin.
