Jonesboro, AR – Jonesboro Right Now – United Stages flags will be displayed during the day at many Jonesboro businesses and offices on Wednesday in honor of Veterans Day.
The flag display is part of a longstanding service project provided to the community by the Jonesboro University Heights (JUH) Lions Club, which provides both the flags, poles, and flag brackets for $50 per year.

Club members display the flags at least ten times a year on national holidays and special days, weather permitting, which the club defines as a less than 50% chance of rain.
For more information or a flag contract, contact Flag Committee chairman Pat Snodgrass at (870) 761-0132 or any JUH Lions Club member.
The flag display is not the only way Jonesboro is celebrating Veterans Day. Several area schools have veterans’ lunches scheduled next week, and the Craighead County Veterans Monument Foundation will be hosting the Veterans Day Parade and Ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 14 beginning at 10 a.m. More information about the parade can be found here.
