  On this date, May 14, in 1804, Captain William Clark and 42 members of the Corps of Discovery (Lewis and Clark expedition team) depart Camp Dubois to go up the Missouri River to meet Captain Meriwether Lewis in St. Charles, Missouri.  This event marked the beginning of Lewis and Clark's historic, pioneering trip to reach the west coast of continental America.

FINALLY! - TEXT (National & State) Half-Staff Alerts:

CLICK HERE to sign-up for National and State-targeted Half-Staff Flag Alert TEXT Notifications
(Many prefer this text alert service because within the Flag Steward app, we can only deliver state-targeted half-staff notifications if you are located in the state and always share your location with the app - which, rightfully, is not something most users want to do) 

This is a FREE service powered by Flag Steward's nonprofit
... America's most honorable, accurate, & complete (National, State, & Local) half-staff alert service ...
