The South King County Chapter of the Alliance for Retired Americans presents a flag dedication ceremony at 1 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 12, at the Kent Senior Center, 600 E. Smith St.
American Legion Post 19 will perform the dedication.
The flag has been flown over the U.S. Capitol Building and is being donated to the center as thanks for hosting the Alliance over the years.
Following the ceremony, the Alliance will gather in Room 6 for its regular monthly meeting (every second Thursday). Look for the standing cardboard cutout of Uncle Sam.
