In our update yesterday, we let everyone know that we would be flagging Washington & Lee tomorrow, Saturday, August 23rd, along with several other upcoming dates.

There is a local resident who has been regularly flagging W&L, almost since the news broke of the desecration of the LEE Chapel.  He contacted us today with the following exciting information:

"EXTRA! EXTRA!!! Lexington update!

Tomorrow is a G R E A T day for flagging here! Woo-hoo!

Not ONLY is it VMI's matriculation day, BUT the City is closing the downtown intersections, which will double the traffic on Jefferson and run EVERYBODY right by you.

There's MORE!
 
 From 9am to 3pm they're having the Rockbridge Festival in the downtown, bringing MORE visitors. We need maximum flagging and you might again bump up the flyers, etc. Could be epic, weather permitting. Wanted to be sure you had the heads' up."

WHAT THIS MEANS:  Tomorrow, the city of Lexington will be PACKED to overflowing with students moving into VMI along with their parents, siblings, and grandparents...AND street closures will force almost ALL traffic to flow beside the location where our Flaggers will stand...AND a festival downtown will mean THOUSANDS of local residents and tourists will be in the city, as well
!

CALL TO ACTION:  IF YOU ARE READING THIS AND ARE ANYWHERE WITHIN DRIVING DISTANCE TO LEXINGTON, please make an effort to join us tomorrow, 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.  It is shaping up to be a "shooting fish in a barrel" opportunity to forward the colors, educate the public about the situation at W&L, and let W&L officials know that we are not going to sit idly by while they desecrate the Lee Chapel and insult the honor and memory of General Robert E. Lee.

PLEASE HELP US BY FORWARDING THIS TO ANYONE YOU KNOW WHO MAY BE ABLE/WILLING TO HELP TOMORROW.

RETURN the flags!
RESTORE the honor!
