1 Today is Flag Day, which commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States on June 14, 1777, by resolution of the Second Continental Congress.

It is not a federal holiday. There is school and businesses are open. But in 1949, President Harry S Truman asked for June 14 to be set aside for a national observance of the United States Flag.

On Sunday morning, June 12, One Framingham and the City of Framingham held a small parade around Cushing Memorial Park followed by a ceremony in front of the memorial for Cushing Hospital.
