Flag Pole Dedication
Font Size:

Wamego (WIBW) - The City of Wamego has a proud display of its patriotism to celebrate Independence Day.

It's all thanks to a teenager who stumbled onto a great idea for her Girl Scout project.

Laurina Hannan noticed at her brother's baseball game that Wamego's baseball complex didn't have an American flag on display.

She raised money for a flag pole for her Girl Scout Gold Award, the Girl Scout's highest honor.

The flag pole was dedicated Friday, and the colors were raised as part of the ceremony.
