It’s a wonderfully warm feeling seeing our flag proudly displayed on so many homes and other locations around Sandpoint. As a retired military wife, I would like to remind all who display the U.S. flag that according to the American Legion “It is the universal custom to display the flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on stationary flag staffs in the open.
However, when a patriotic effect is desired, the flag may be displayed 24 hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness.” In other words, if your outside flag is not illuminated, please remember to take your flag inside between sunset and sunrise.
