Flag Day 2021

Happy Flag Day, Yeadon!

Although we are experiencing a gradual return to normal from the pandemic, the uncertainty of the last few months prevented the borough from planning for the usual Flag Day festivities and ceremonies that the holiday traditionally marks in Yeadon. As the hometown of Flag Day founder Thomas Kerr, Yeadon has been proud to host a celebration for the entire community annually each year since 1949 – a tradition interrupted only once, by the pandemic in 2020, and again this year in 2021.

In lieu of an in-person celebration this year, please enjoy these Flag Day moments from years’ past. Be safe, stay healthy, and please — get vaccinated! We look forward to 2022, when an even bigger and better celebration of this special day for Yeadon — and for all Americans — returns to Kerr Field.
