Flag days

362

Editor,

Something I have always wondered about is why Eureka Springs doesn’t fly more U.S. flags celebrating Memorial Day, July 4th and Veteran’s Day.

The Doughboy War Memorial sculpture in Basin Park was placed as a memorial after World War I to honor the local men who served their country.

From the history that I have read about Eureka Springs, it was founded July 4, 1879. This is the one day you would certainly expect to see a lot of U.S. flags flying in our town.

Can you imagine how nice this would look?
