They’re Taking Our Flag Down!
They'll be taking our Shelby Veterans Memorial flag down within the next couple of weeks, but don't worry about a thing. The winch cable is on the fritz, & it's going to be a couple of weeks in order to get the necessary parts to complete the work. We're well aware that Shelby, is in a Class 4 Wind Area. The wicked wind created a twist or torque on the cable. Progress is being made as far as getting the correct cable to reduce this in future. We need some real good weather, no wind, no mud, etc., in order the crane can climb the hill & hoist the repair person right up to the top safe & sound. It goes without saying the "supply chain" problem isn't helping. The current storm flag is the last Shelby has, & with new ones on back order since Thanksgiving! We have something to look really forward to once the cable's repaired & Old Glory is flying proudly once again. Thank you for your patience, & for our Shelby veterans, thank YOU for your service...
