Chamber Happenings!
Stars and Stripes Program
The Albion Chamber of Commerce, along with help from the Albion American Legion Post 246, has been purchasing, maintaining and hanging American flags throughout the Town of Albion for nearly 15 years. The flags are hung on street light posts throughout town each year, May through September. This American heritage not
only decorates our small town with patriotism, it helps beautify our streets.
To help offset the rising cost of the flags and accessories, the Chamber started the Stars and Stripes Program where community members pitched in by buying/sponsoring a flag in a loved ones honor or memory. Flags can still be purchased by visiting the Chamber website at albionin.org.
