More flags and bunting are filling the village

The Grove looks so great with all the flags and bunting. AAA Flag & Banner Mfg. did a great job with the bunting along South Bayshore Drive and McFarlane Road. And Bobby Starke, from the City's Special Events team worked with the BID office in getting 70 of the flags up on Grand Avenue, Main Highway and all the other spots around the Center Grove at no cost to the Grove. A Saturday morning crew worked from 5 am to noon with the supervision of Manny Gonzalez, the BID Projects Coordinator. They were all proud and honored to put up the American flags.

People have been asking me what all the flags are for, when I tell them they are for the 4th of July, they say it's too soon. But I think Christmas decorations in August or September are too soon. Flags around the village a couple of weeks before the 4th of July is perfect. It's a reminder of the big day to come. Also, yesterday was Flag Day.
