Mike Francis is “Working for a Living” at Arkansas FlagandBanner.com

In a patriotic-themed program just before Independence Day, Mike Francis, weekend weatherman for KARK Channel 4, came to the offices of FlagandBanner.com to try his hand at the flag business. Mike introduced the business, the owner Kerry McCoy, and his duties for the morning standing in front of the 9′ Lady Liberty statue in the building’s foyer. Unpaid and untrained, Mike did a surprisingly good job at sewing a torn flag, working the grommet machine (and mocking it’s noise… btttt-BAP!), folding a flag, tying the presentation cord to an indoor flag pole, still unharmed through it all, making an ink swipe on the screen printing table. Mike’s final duty was to place an American flag on the fire for an official Retiring Ceremony conducted by the Boy Scouts Troop #6 and Troop #262. Keeping watch over the ceremony - and Mike - was the Little Rock Fire Department. We appreciate all who participated in the occasion and would like to thank Mike Francis for his interest in our endeavors here at FlagandBanner.com. Great job, Mike, but don’t quit your day job… you are a better weatherman!
