Summary
Donate for the new flag and pole in Rolling Fork
Seven months post tornado, and the flag pole in the Grove of Memories on Highway 61 is still laying on the ground. LDP has taken on the project of installing a new pole and flags with hopes of having it completed by Veterans Day.
Working with A Complete Flag Source out of Jackson, MS, LDP has arranged for a 50 foot pole to be installed and new flags (American and Mississippi) flown once again in Rolling Fork. Weather permitting, the new pole will be raised on November 10, and a flag raising ceremony/Veterans Day ceremony will be held at that location on November 11.
With an estimated cost of $7,000 (thank you Complete Flag Source for the great deal!), LDP would like to pay half of the cost, and raise the other half through donations. You can be a part of returning the flag to Rolling Fork.
Anyone wishing to donate may visit Donate to Mississippi’s Lower Delta Partnership and type flag pole or similar in the comments section.
