Members of Boy Scout Troop 22 recently replaced all of the flags at The Faus Group in Calhoun. All the previous flags suffered from sever weather damage. Along with the United States and Georgia State flags, the Spanish flag and the Faus corporate flag were replaced. The Faus Group produces high-quality laminate flooring. A flag ceremony will take place on the next scheduled Boy Scout campout, and the flags that were taken down will be officially "retired" with the respect they deserve. The Boy Scouts are one of a limited amount of organization's that can legally dispose of the American flag.
