For some time now, residents and visitors to East Carbon have been able to enjoy seeing the American Flag fly proudly atop Flag Hill. A number of years ago, a makeshift pole was erected to make this possible. However, due to the instability of the flag, a need was prudent for more security.
Community members Jeff Palmer and Jeff Hunt dug a deep hole to prepare a cement pole. After seeking help via Facebook, the duo were joined by Mike Porter, Gabe Hunt, Gene Jacquez, Tyler Grundy, Donald McCarthy, Russell Cave and Magin Simmons.
Together, this group set the pole and raised a beautiful flag for all to enjoy. This new and secure structure ensures that Flag Hill will be enjoyed by many generations to come. The community thanks all those that rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
