River Vale residents now have another convenient way to respectfully retire their worn or damaged American flags, thanks to James Pakalnietis and his Eagle Scout Project!
A new Flag Retirement Collection Box has been installed at the River Vale DPW Recycling Center (320 Rivervale Road) — in addition to the existing collection box located on the side of River Vale Town Hall (406 Rivervale Road).
Community members are encouraged to deposit flags that are no longer suitable for display into either box. All flags collected will be retired with dignity, in accordance with the U.S. Flag Code.
Thank you for helping us honor our nation’s symbol with the respect it deserves.
