Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown has ordered flags at all City facilities to be lowered to half-staff to coincide with Governor Bob Ferguson's directive that state and U.S. flags at all state agency facilities be lowered on Monday, May 25 for Memorial Day.
Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May and commemorates those who lost their lives while serving in the country's armed forces. We encourage anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in this recognition.
