The Parade of Flags is Wellington Kiwanis Club’s annual community service project. Each flag holiday, close to 300 flags proudly flying throughout Wellington show that the Spirit of ’76 is alive and well in our village.
Subscriptions to have a flag placed in your front yard for Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Patriot Day and Veteran’s Day are $30. All proceeds go towards our ongoing signature project – raising funds for community playground equipment.
Help create a community of red, white, and blue and join the parade of flags in your neighborhood.
Wellington Kiwanis will provide, install, remove and properly store the flag for the following holidays:
Memorial Day, Flag Day (6/14), Independence Day (7/4), Patriot Day (9/11), and Veterans Day (11/11)
$30.00 per calendar year – Your entire subscription donation supports Wellington playgrounds, as Kiwanis absorbs the cost of materials in its regular budget.
Where will the flag be placed in my yard? We will do our best to find the most visible place, 6 ft into your yard from either the sidewalk or from the tree lawn.
When will the flag be placed and removed? We will place and remove the flag approximately 1 to 3 days prior and after the holiday.
Already part of the way into the year, no problem. We can prorate your cost, $6 per holiday for the remainder of the year. Please give us 2 weeks prior to a holiday to process your paperwork.
The flagpole does not have a light. You may place a solar light at night if you wish or bring the flag in during the night while returning it the next morning.
For a business that does not have space to place a flag or a non-village resident, a flag will be placed for you in an array of flags in a highly visible location along West Herrick Ave.
Featured sponsors for Wellington Kiwanis Club’s sixth annual Parade of Flags for Flag Day include Small Town Eye Care at Mercy Health; Valley Chevy at Union School Park, and Councilman Keith and Jennifer Rowland at the Town Hall. Season long sponsors are American Legion Post 8 at the Vietnam Memorial on the south lawn of the Town Hall, VFW Post 6941 at the N. Main St. grade separation, and the Wellington Masonic Lodge at Pioneer Cemetery. All told, we have 302 flags waving for Flag Day throughout the village. This year’s campaign has raised about $9,000 for our proposed playground at Union School Park bringing our total to more than $102,000 for the playground. Flags come down after Flag Day, but we will have them back up for Independence Day and our celebration of 250 years as a country. We look forward to the day we have a playground for our children on the south end of town. ... See MoreSee Less
