Rotary Club celebrates America’s 250th anniversary

Members of the Rotary Club of Azle gathered to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary during their weekly meeting Thursday, June 18.

The program began with members celebrating the anniversary with a cake. Kyle Johnson led the program and shared a story about an old American flag that once flew on his mother’s flagpole in Oklahoma. The group then listened to “Ragged Old Flag” by Johnny Cash.

During the meeting, members also reflected on significant events spanning the past 250 years of American history, including the sacrifices made throughout the nation’s history.
