Gleaner Life hosts 33rd annual Flag Day celebration

April 01, 2019

Update: 

We are sad to announce that we have cancelled this year’s Flag Day program and lunch due to excessive rain saturation leading to unsafe conditions on the grounds for members and guests. However, we will still be holding our blood drive and flag exchange from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. inside our Home Office. We invite you to pre-register for the blood drive at the following link: redcrossblood.org and entering the sponsor code GLEANER or by calling 800.RED.CROSS.

Be sure to pre-register for the flag exchange by email at events@gleanerlife.org or calling 800-992-1894 ext 3508

Gleaner Life Insurance Society will hold its 33rd annual Flag Day celebration Wednesday, June 12, beginning at 11 a.m. at Gleaner’s Home Office, 5200 W. U.S. Highway 223 in Adrian.

This free and open-to-the-public event will celebrate the American flag and our country’s devotion to patriotism, honoring veterans and military personnel in service today. In addition to the ceremonial raising of the flag, veterans dressed in full uniform will salute the flag as community members recite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Following the program, guests will be treated to a complimentary lunch on the Gleaner grounds. 

Gleaner is also teaming with the American Red Cross to host a blood drive, which will be held during the Flag Day event, from 9 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Donors are asked to pre-register by visiting redcrossblood.org and entering the sponsor code GLEANER or by calling 800.RED.CROSS.
