Rotary Club of Flagler Beach Kicks off their Flagler Flag Project

PALM COAST, Fla. - May 18, 2020 - PRLog -- The Rotary Club of Flagler Beach is pleased to announce the organization has kicked off their Flagler Flag Project fundraiser with a bang with over 100 flags having already been installed throughout Bunnell, Palm Coast and Flagler Beach. The Flagler Flag Project allows residents of Flagler County to have a 3x5 American flag (made in America) installed and picked up in their yard during five patriotic weeks of the year.

Funds raised will go toward Rotary's charitable efforts, including food for those in need in Flagler County.

"Residents and businesses can show their support for the community during the COVID-19 crisis and beyond," said Tim O'Donnell, Flagler Beach Rotarian and project coordinator. The holidays that the flag is delivered and picked up include: President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day through Sept. 11th and Veterans Day.

The program works with the organization installing a 3/4" X 18" PVC pipe to hold the flagpole in the participants front lawn or flower bed, flush with the ground. The flag is delivered before each holiday and picked up after the holiday.

The cost is $50 per year. Those interested in participating in the program can visit http://www.needsconnector.com/flaglerflag, or send a check to: Rotary Club of Flagler Beach, P.O. Box 2005, Flagler Beach, FL 32136, along with a note indicating that it's for a flag and include their name, address, phone number and email address. Can they pay online?
