Come, lend your hands to raise flags for Memorial Day! Middlesex Rotary Club members will be setting up 140 flags for its Flags for Heroes event on May 18 at 3 p.m. at the field on the  southeast corner of General Puller Highway and Twiggs Ferry Road.

“Join us for an hour or so to begin honoring our Heroes for Memorial Day,” an event spokesman said. “You may also sponsor a flag(s) in the display thru Memorial Day for $50 and for $80 your sponsorship would be a flag for Memorial Day and Veterans Day 2025.

Your assistance and the net proceeds of this fundraising event will benefit the Mathews-Middlesex Rotary Charitable Foundation, Inc., 501-c3. for their charitable projects within Middlesex County. The Mathews-Middlesex Rotary Charitable Foundation Inc. has 501c3, tax status. Also, stop by the Rotary booth at Deltaville Hometown IGA grocery store on May 9, 10, 16 or 17 or at the flags display in Hartfield on May 23-26.

“Come view your flag, get your picture taken,” an event spokesman said.
