The Exchange Club of Springfield Proudly We Hail Committee Co-Chairs Dan and Marilyn Gallagher presented the awards to Ritchie Bros Auctioneers and the Jackson, Lytle & Lewis Life Celebration Center today at the Tuesday April 16, 2019 Noon meeting of the club at the Wittenberg Student Center.

No symbol inspires respect and love of country more than our American flag — the Stars and Stripes. That is why Exchange encourages all Americans to properly fly the flag as an ongoing, highly visible expression of that respect through the Proudly We Hail program.

Proudly We Hail honors those Americans who  display the nation’s banner properly and regularly. Recognition is in the form of a beautiful plaque specially designed for this purpose.
