On Saturday, hikers will try to put American flags atop the 48 White Mountain peaks taller than 4,000 feet. The tradition began when some hikers posted a flag on Mount Liberty just days after the 2001 attacks. Last year flags were flown all the 4,000-footers on Sept. 14.
My wife just told me it was covered on WZID this morning and I just checked the WMUR Website and found this:
Sept. 13
White Mountains
Hikers plan to put American flags atop the 48 peaks taller than 4,000 feet. Flags will fly from noon to 2 p.m. More information at http://www.alpinezone.com.
Once again, the event was mentioned, although not by name, on WHEB and WGIR. Perhaps next year a press release would be warranted including the name of the event, etc?
It went out to the newspapers, and I assume that the AP had the name, which is where all these organizations are getting the info from. They just chose to leave it out. Or maybe AP left it off the wire?
