The wind and weather of South Texas can take a toll on the American flags we display with pride. KRIS 6 and our community partners are doing something about that!
We’ve teamed up to create “Flag for a Flag.” Through this flag exchange program, you can exchange your 3’x5’ or larger faded, worn, and a tattered American flag for a new 3’x5’ American flag… for free!
Just bring your old flag to one of our partner’s exchange locations around the Coastal Bend area on Monday, June 12, 2023, during regular business hours.
We will exchange your old flag with a new one, and we will make sure your old flag is retired with the honor it deserves. Then, you can fly your new American flag with pride on National Flag Day, June 14!
