Patriotic Flag Installation & Removal Days

Join us in honoring our nation’s heroes by helping install and remove American flags throughout the Vandeventer Neighborhood Community Healing & Meditation Garden. Volunteers place flags along pathways and flower beds to celebrate USA national holidays and show respect for our veterans and community members who served.

• Memorial Day (Last Monday in May) 

• Independence Day (July 4) 

• Veterans Day (November 11)

Volunteer Tasks:

• Install and remove flags throughout the garden

• Clean and prep flagpoles for each holiday

• Help set up reflection areas (benches, flowers, signage)

• Photograph displays for community archives and social media

• Light garden clean up (remove litter/debris)

Why Volunteers Are Needed:

These events create a visible tribute to military service and unite neighbors in gratitude. Volunteers help maintain the beauty and dignity of the garden.

Time Commitment:

Each activity lasts about 30 minutes, usually in the morning for installation and early evening for removal (not on the same day).

Best For:

Community groups, families, veterans, scout troops, and students seeking service hours.
