Our 2018 Flag Lease Subscription Program has begun.
 
We are inviting all residents with homes in cities of Lewisville, Flower Mound and Highland Village to consider our flag lease program. We partner with scouting groups and other youth organizations to erect a 3' x 5' Flag on a 10' staff in your front during national holidays. We have two programs; Tier I which delivers flags on 6 holidays for $48/year and Tier II which delivers flags on 10 holidays for $80/year. See below for the holidays included in each tier.
 
If you are a returning subscriber, thank you for your past participation. We encourage you to please share this article with your neighbors and encourage them to join you and your family in honoring our flag and our country. And thank you for supporting both LMR and local youth organizations by purchasing an annual subscription to our flag program. 
 
Our Flag Subscription Year coincides with our Rotary fiscal year (July through June). We now have a two tiered subscription schedule. We refer to our six traditional holidays as Tier 1 (shown in normal font in the following table) and our full holiday schedule as Tier 2 (with the four additional holidays shown in italics).

The full year Tier 1 fee is $48 while the Tier 2 fee is $80. 
 
If you are a new subscriber we will drill a hole in your yard and insert a sleeve to make it easy for the volunteers to place the flag(s) in the ground before the holiday. As a renewal subscriber that sleeve enabling the volunteers to place the flag in your yard should already be in place. The same volunteers then pick the flag up after the holiday. 
 
Your subscription fee helps support the organization whose volunteers deploy the flags in addition to the local and international charities that our club supports.
