A flag ceremony honors the American flag as the symbol of our country and all the hopes, dreams, and people it consists of. If your group includes girls from other countries, girls can honor their flags, too, and conduct an international flag ceremony. Flag ceremonies may be used for:
 * Opening or closing meetings
 * Opening or closing special events
 * Beginning or closing a day
 * Honoring a special occasion or special person
 * Retiring a worn flag
