Scouts Offering Flag Fundraiser to Support Local Troop

Scouts Offering Flag Fundraiser to Support Local Troop

You may have noticed last week on Memorial Day morning, as you drove around Fallon, the sudden appearance of American flags lining the streets. The phenomenon is one of the best traditions in our small town and is our own Boy Scout Troop 1776.

Each year, the Scouts offer a flag subscription fundraiser. For just $30 a year, these young leaders will post an American flag in front of your home or business on five patriotic holidays: Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, and Veterans Day. Scouts show up at dawn to post the flags and return at dusk to respectfully retire them for the evening. If you haven’t seen them in action, it’s worth stepping outside with your coffee. It’s a beautiful and quiet reminder of the spirit that ties our community together.

“This is an amazing way to participate in Fallon’s small-town patriotism,” Lucy Carnahan, Fallon Chamber director, said. 

One parent said, “We’d love to add you to the program — and it really helps our Scouts cover campouts, gear, and uniform expenses.”

Funds raised go directly to Troop 1776, and every subscription makes a big difference.

To sign up:

Reach out, and the scouts will be glad to help.
