Shannon Services raises the flags on Main
Sponsorship form attached -
In cooperation with the Village of Bluffton, the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Bluffton American Legion, the S.H.A.N.N.O.N. Service Club of Bluffton seeks sponsorship for the purchase of the American flags that line Main Street of Bluffton each summer.
Duane Bollenbacher of the club said, "The purchase of flags is open to businesses, organizations, or to individuals. For $25 per flag, you can be the sponsor of an American flag on Main Street of Bluffton this summer. For each flag that you sponsor, you may designate someone that you wish to honor or memorialize."
The S.H.A.N.N.O.N. Service Club of Bluffton is an entirely local volunteer group whose only missions are to help and support community activities, projects, families, schools and other organizations.
Among its annual projects includes:
• Three BHS senior scholarships
• Mennonite Memorial Home volunteers
• Support Bluffton Community Assistance Program food pantry
• Partners with Bluffton Public Library in "1,000 books before Kindergarten"
• Sponsor of Christmas adopt-a-family
• Hosts community dinners at the senior center
All proceeds from the sponsorship of flags will be used entirely in the local area for the betterment of the people in this community.
