MILWIT National Rally Forest City, IA July 9-14 Our National Rally will be at the Winnebago Rally grounds 9-14 July. As usual we will have our nightly happy hour (beginning at 1600) and several drawings for gift bags. Make sure to bring finger foods for the happy hours. We will again host a Veterans recognition dinner during our national rally and of course we will participate in the Annual Forest City Puckerbrush Parade. We will conduct our officer elections and discuss some proposals to modify the structure of the organization. We will also need to bring our by-laws into compliance with changes made in the WIT by-laws. Again this year we will have a wee auction so bring items suitable for that purpose. I do believe there will be several bottles of “Monkey Shoulder” for those who have a taste for finer scotch. Last years bottle went for around $125.00 and we had more than one bottle the profits probably would have been substantially higher! For many years WIT members have approached us and asked if we could help them dispose of their old tired American flags. I asked Bill Speer to develop an American Flag Retirement and Tribute Ceremony for the GNR. Bill has written a good 10 minute program to properly honor the flag in accordance with US Code 4 “The Flag Code” and Doug Formanek would like to make the ceremony part of the Monday 16 July evening program. So, if you have a flag that is so worn, faded, or tattered that it is no longer fitting for display? Bring it to the 2012 GNR and turn it over to Bill. He will accept your flag and it will be honored in the flag tribute ceremony during the rally. We will honor your flag in accordance with US Code 4, section 8k and dispose of it with respect according the Flag Code. We will select a flag from those given to us to represent all the flags. As you know, most Flags today are often made of synthetic materials and when they are burned they would give off acrid or unsafe fumes. Therefore, the flag chosen for burning will be one made of natural fibers of cotton or wool. The remaining flags will be taken to Ft. Riley, Kansas where they will be honorably disposed in an EPA approved incinerator. For questions, call Bill Speer 785-210-7141. To mail in a flag send it to Bill at 6908 Old Milford Rd. Milford, KS 66514. And that is about it from the North Coast. See you in Forest City!
