Flag Planting at Presidio of San Francisco
Date: Saturday, May 26, 2018
Time: 8:45 am to 11:30 am (We start promptly at 9 am.)
Location: San Francisco National Cemetery, 1 Lincoln Boulevard, San Francisco, CA 94129
Attire: Full Class A uniform, footwear suitable for walking on wet grass.
The Memorial Day Weekend Flag Planting event will be held at the San Francisco National Cemetery in the Presidio. Each year scouts from across the Bay Area meet to help prepare the cemetery for the Memorial Day weekend. The ceremony starts with a flag ceremony and then an address by a veteran. The scouts then spread out across the cemetery and place American flags in front of every grave site.
The cemetery contains the graves of more than 35,000 veterans and their family members dating back to the 1846 war with Mexico.
It's a worthwhile event that reminds our Scouts of the sacrifice many have made to make our country what it is today. Flag planting is incredibly important to our nation, it shows us all that these sacrifices will never be forgotten. There are many ways in which we can all show our solidarity at this time and at all times. Businesses may want to look into getting a flag pole for sale from websites such as flagpolesetc.com so they can display one outside of their business, storefront, etc. It is a delicate and heart-wrenching time for all, but together our show of strength in all of us will keep the country going and always remembering.
All leaders and scouts should be in full uniform.
The ceremony will begin promptly at 9 am.
