The Floating Bridge Pond Association and office of Ward 2 Councilor Obed Matul are asking for your help to bring the flags back to Buchanan Bridge this year.
They are looking to get 20 flags donated, at a cost of $100 each. These are American-Made flags that are sturdy enough to hold the high winds. Please make all checks out to The Floating Bridge Pond Association. Any donation or check can be mailed to:
Attention: Obed Matul
365 Chatham St, Lynn, MA 01902
Donations will be accepted until the flags will go up. This year’s flag raising will take place on Friday June 27th, the time is TBD. People are invited to stop by who may want to come join FBPA while they put the flags up.
The above information was submitted to us by Ward 2 Councilor Obed Matul.
