ALBION – Boy Scouts in Albion continued their annual tradition of placing about 2,000 American flags at the graves of American soldiers in Mount Albion Cemetery and St. Joseph’s Catholic Cemetery on Route 31.
The group is led by Jeff Braley, the Scout Master. The Boy Scouts include Stryker Braley, Colson Braley, Jax Gotte, Leo Gotte, Jack Breuilly, Peter Stritzinger, Sebastian Stritzinger, Colton Durow and Mason Patten. Lincoln Metcalf, a Cub Scout, also helped with the effort on Saturday morning.
The older scouts started placing the flags in kindergarten and many are in high school now.
