Lafayette Band in Lexington, KY offers a flag subscription service for six patriotic holidays throughout the year.
The flag subscription includes a 3’x5’ American Flag installed in your yard for six holidays including Memorial Day (last Monday in May), Flag Day (June 14), Independence Day (July 4), Labor Day (First Monday in September), Patriot Day (September 11), Veterans Day (November 11).
Lafayette Band volunteers set up and remove the flags so students are actively involved in this fundraiser.
There is also an option for those who do not live in Lexington, KY to purchase a flag subscription and have a flag placed at the Lexington VA hospital in support of local veterans. Both options support the Lafayette Band and a portion of each subscription supports “Boots for Troops”.
The deadline for flag service is usually one to two weeks prior to each holiday to ensure routes are covered. This is a flag subscription service and not a purchase of an actual flag.
