Memorial Day was our 1st "Flag Program"Holiday of the year. Flag Day (14 June) was the second. On Independacne Day (July 14) we put out 270 flags. We have almost 100 new flag subscriptions. Many kudos' to Brent Myers and Bob Shell who busted their backsides to get the sleeves installed for these new flag locations.
Renewals of flag subscriptions are lagging behind with over 40 residents that have yet to renew their subscriptions. It is not to late for them. They can renew at a prorated rate for the last three holidays.
Please talk to your neighbors and friends in Lewisville (including Castle Hills), Flower Mound and Highland Village. If they have not renewed, encourage them to do so. At this time we are not accepting new subscriptions for this year. Online registration for renewals is always available on our website.

Hello everyone! Please note there is an urgent need for blood.
I want to share that in January I had IVIG infusion (antibodies) . It takes over 7,500 donors to provide a single infusion! Of course this is paid for. Nevertheless THE POINT IS THAT BLOOD DONATION IS FOR MANY NEEDS - Not just red blood and platelets. YOUR HELP IN PROMOTING IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED
The Lewisville Morning Rotary Club is hosting a blood drive at the Vista Ridge Mall on June 6, 2015. Please plan on joining us for an hour or so. If you can't give, please join us anyway. Members can help by encouraging folks in the mall to donate and to manage the que of donors waiting to give.
You can also encourage your family and friends to join us then.
This is a great opportunity for fellowship with Rotarians from throughout District 5790
