MSU Retirees Association
Director VanAcker was honored to address a meeting of the Michigan State University Retirees Association at the community meeting space at the South Campus MSU Federal Credit Union. The February 10, 2025 presentation/book signing focused on Lansing and the Civil War and the battle flag collection. It also included information on individuals associated with the Michigan Agricultural College who saw action with Lansing based companies, including Charles Foster, Albert Cowles and Dr. Robert Kedzie. Save The Flags would like to thank the retirees association for their invitation to join them and for their great kindness and support.
