This bill amends Pennsylvania law to include a procedure for folding the official state flag.

  • June 13, 1907 (P.L.560, No.373)

    providing for the carrying of such flag by the regiments of the National Guard of Pennsylvania; authorizing the Secretary of the Commonwealth to provide, and have deposited in the office of Secretary of the Commonwealth, a model of said flag, and making an appropriation therefor, → providing for the proper procedure to fold the flag, and making an appropriation therefor.

    This change adds instructions for the proper procedure to fold the flag to the existing law.

  • Section 3.1. The following procedures constitute the proper way to fold the flag for presentation or display: (1) Fold the flag four times lengthwise so that one section displays the Commonwealth crest. (2) Fold each side behind the displayed section at a ninety-degree angle so that the display section forms a triangle. (3) Take the section ending with the hoist and fold it at a ninety-degree angle across the bottom of the display section and then fold the hoist back over so it is aligned with the middle of the display section. (4) Fold the other protruding section directly upwards so that its edge is flush with the display section and then fold it upwards along a forty-five-degree angle so that a mirror of the display section triangle is formed. (5) Fold the mirror section in half from the point upwards, then fold the remaining portion upwards, tucking it between the display section and the remainder of the flag.

    This addition establishes specific procedures for folding the flag.
