The Lake Tahoe Chapter National Society Daughters of the American Revolution awarded the Community Service Award to Chris Sneed at their October chapter meeting. This award is bestowed upon an individual who has made a contribution to their community in an outstanding manner through voluntary heroic, civic, benevolent service, or by organizing or participating in community activities.
Sneed has shown outstanding patriotism over the past 22 years with his annual flag-raising event in honor of those Americans who lost their lives in the terrorist attack on 9/11. Each September 10, Sneed places a new U.S. flag on a craggy outcropping east of Spooner Summit along US50. In addition to the Community Service Award certificate and pin, Mr. Sneed was awarded a U.S. flag that had been flown over the U.S. Capitol on September 11, 2023.
