Thank you to Boy Scout Troop 41 for their care and service at the CBJ cemetery. After noticing that the flag needed replacing, the Scouts helped purchase and install a new flag and will ensure the old one is properly retired. We are grateful for their thoughtfulness and respect for this meaningful community space.
