PCToday Photo Gallery - 2005 Community Flag March

[Photo Gallery Archives]

Pennsylvania College of Technology was the rallying point for the 22nd annual "God, Country and Community Flag March," as hundreds of patriotic participants paraded from Hepburn Street uptown to the majestic "Flags Across America" landmark at the college's main entrance. Outside the Student and Administrative Services Center, the group gathered in patriotic song and observance, and, at 7 p.m., joined in the national recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. Trophies were presented in a number of categories, and parade organizer Anthony DiSalvo handed out "Tony" awards to three event supporters: the Repasz Elks Band, South Williamsport Lions Club and Penn College.
