St. Regis marks Memorial Day with flag displays

There were well over fifty American flags placed at various graves in the St. Regis Cemetery this Memorial Day weekend, just a small representation of the very large percentage of service members that make up all of Mineral County. Miniature versions of the stars and stripes waving around the green lawns are a visual reminder to all Montana communities of their own veterans buried and the ultimate sacrifice that many have made.

The four-way stop is backed up to I-90, the smell of concession stand burgers and sweet kettle corn hangs in the air, a little blue shuttle carries passengers and their treasures back to their vehicles. It's Memorial Day weekend in St. Regis, Montana - it's Flea Market time! The 49th annual swap meet at the St. Regis Park hosted over 200 vendors, while the normally sleepy little town bustled with traffic and hundreds of flea market goers.
