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.

Dr. Cynthia Jaird was given the Rookie of the Year award by President Bob Troyer at our recent Pass the Gavel event.
Cynthia's commitment to Service Above Self was immediately obvious even before joining our club last November. Once she joined, she immediately immersed herself in some of our many service projects in spite of her extremely busy job as Principal of Central Elementary School.
