Dear Spring Run Members,

Over the holiday weekend, the President issued a half-staff proclamation for the victims in Uvalde TX. Normally, I receive an email notice alerting us to this. Unfortunately, the email was missed, and the flag was not lowered accordingly.

I have surveyed area clubs on their flag policy, and all follow the same protocol as we do. When the President or Governor issues a proclamation to lower it, we follow suit. To make certain this does not happen again, I have also added the Flag Day app to my phone, as well as for the Golf Pro and Outside Attendant Supervisor. Instead of an email that can go to spam or be deleted the notification shows as an alert on the phone. This step will ensure that these proclamations are always acted on in a timely manner.

Feel free to leave any comments or questions.

Thank you,

Mike
