St. Peter Lion’s Club donates three flagpoles to the city’s future fire station
ST. PETER, Minn. (KEYC) - The St. Peter Lions Club donated three flag poles to the city’s future fire station.
The three poles will fly the U.S. flag, Minnesota’s state flag and the POW/MIA flag.
The international service organization with members worldwide feels that the service firefighters do everyday falls in line with the Lion’s Club creed.
“We could have sponsored, I guess, some equipment, or furniture, or something like that, but the flags and the flagpoles have a greater symbolism and also a longer lifespan duration,” explained Ken Rossow, President of the St. Peter Lion’s Club. “Hopefully, they’ll be there as long as the fire station.”
The city will install a plaque of appreciation for the Lions Club at the site of the future flag poles.
The donation totals just over $13,000 dollars.
