lag burning ceremony:

Keep it simple, solemn and respectful.  This from a leader...Adele:

We retired our very tattered camp flag. AT the evening bonfire after several quiet and sentimental songs to set the mood we made a big circle around the fire.  8 girls actually performed the ceremony.

6 girls held the flag, 3 on a side, one girl used scissors to cut each stripe away.  1 girl reminded us of the 13 original colony names, as each stripe was cut and placed in the fire.  The last step was to put the field of stars into the flames and remember all fifty states.  We ended with taps.
