American Legion Post 326 will have a display of the 50-star American flag at the local Legion Home from 3 to 9 p.m. June 3 to 10.

Various sizes and sets, both for home and street use, will be on display. The idea behind the sale is to encourage more people to proudly fly the flag on national holidays. (Hawaii became the 50th U.S. state on Aug. 21, 1959. The new flag became official on July 4, 1960.)

Spring Spruce-Up

Again it’s “Spring Spruce-Up” time, an annual project sponsored by the Garden Club of Lake Placid and the Village Board during the month of June.

It’s an opportunity for house cleaning and beautifying on a community scale, and for an honest inspection of buildings, homes and grounds to see what can be done to “clean up, paint up, fix up and plant up.”

This is the time to: start a perennial or rock garden; plant shrubs and shade trees; remove rubbish from the attic, cellar and garage; install and plant annual flower boxes; note faulty wiring and fire hazards and necessary repairs in order to give the town a fresh new look.
