NPS Cub Scout Flag Etiquette Program:The flag etiquette program for scouts consists of a brief lesson on the parts of a flag and flagpole, the history of the American flag, and a general discussion on the proper ways to display, raise, lower, and fold the flag. Afterwards, participants will practice these skills in a hands-on exercise under Ranger supervision. Scouts will then discuss the flag under which Garfield served as president, and take a tour of the house. Scouts may also participate in the Junior Ranger program to earn a site badge. These programs are free and is roughly two hours. Call 440-255-8722 or e-mail us to register. Junior Ranger ProgramThe Junior Ranger program helps kids get involved and learn more about James A.
