Flags to Burn in Upper St. Clair Tonight

The old flags will have a dignified retirement.

Dozens of tattered United States flags will be properly retired and set aflame Tuesday night.

Upper St. Clair Township officials and local Boy Scouts organized the special ceremony that will take place at 7:30 p.m. at the fire circle next to the old recreation center on McLaughlin Run Road.

The township added a "Retire Your Old Glory" bin at the new Community and Recreation Center on Mayview Road to collect unserviceable flags from residents in May 2012.
