The Coos Bay Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) is proud to announce its annual Flag Disposal Event, providing the community with a respectful way to retire worn and tattered American flags. The event runs from April 1 through May 31, with multiple collection sites available throughout Coos and Curry counties.

Once again, the Coos Bay Chapter DAR is partnering with the Coos Bay Library to offer a convenient drop-off location, ensuring community members have easy access to participate in this important tradition.

Community members can drop off disposable flags at the following locations:

Coastal Swag – 1717 Oregon St., Port Orford

Ace Hardware – 840 Oregon Ave SE., Bandon

Proper flag disposal is a time honored tradition that pays tribute to the American flag with the respect it deserves.
