Nyack Flag Project

July
13

Marie Lorenzini, a village trustee who is running for mayor this year, said she wanted to do something special for Flag Day, an often forgotten American holiday.

So, this year she asked to receive a U.S. flag flown over the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., which she presented to the Nyack Fire Department after the volunteer firefighters’ parade a few weeks ago on Flag Day.

The firefighters will fly that flag at each Nyack firehouse through the year, until the flag will be brought back to Village Hall for Flag Day next year, where it will stay.

“It just was a nice thank you for them,” Lorenzini said about the firefighters. “That’s why I did it.”
