The Parade of Flags is Wellington Kiwanis Club’s annual community service project. Each flag holiday, over 200 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.
Wellington Kiwanis Club’s fifth annual Parade of Flags kicked off this Memorial Day weekend with more than 235 U.S. flags waving in the wind. That is a record. Thanks to VFW Post 6941, drivers are greeted as they enter the downtown district with a 20-flag display on the hill of the North Main St. underpass. American Legion Post 8 is once again sponsoring the flags at the Vietnam Memorial on the Town Hall south lawn. John and Amy Kiley of Kiley’s Tree Service sponsored the Town Hall display while Steve Neff of Wellington Music is the sponsor again at Union School Park. Residents can still subscribe to have a flag in their yard for Flag Day, Independence Day, Patriot Day, and Veteran’s Day. Cost is $6 per holiday. All proceeds go to our Playground Fund. Memorial Day ceremonies begin at 10:30 a.m. Monday at the Town Hall. ... See MoreSee Less
Wellington Kiwanis Club was the chief sponsor of McCormick Middle School's inaugural Dynamic Duke Handshake competition for sixth graders at the Wellington Eagles. Kiwanians Ayers Ratliff, Jenny Arntz, Troy Pitts and Terry Mazzone participated, although we also represented other organizations. Principal Robert Figuly and Nathan Morris did a fine job in organizing this event that will hopefully become an annual competition. We are sharing a video prepared by Wellington Schools.
