Photos: Tradition of Tribute: American flags in Lincoln City

Remembering local veterans continues to be a tradition of tribute by the Lincoln City Kiwanis Club. Roger Robertson and other Kiwanis members continued the club's Parade of Flags program, placing over 200 American Flags throughout Lincoln City, Wednesday, Nov. 11, to show support for veterans and the men and women now serving the county. Kiwanis Club members pack the flags into vehicles and drive around town placing the flags in front of local businesses and other locations during the mornings of eight holidays, including Labor Day, 9-11 Patriot Day, Veterans Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day and the Fourth of July. They return to pick up the flags at the end of the day on each holiday. Placing the flags in front of businesses as a show of support has been a major fundraising event for the Kiwanis Club for generations. For most major holidays and special American flag celebrations, the flags are displayed in front of the supporting businesses. Volunteers begin as early as first light by carefully installing the flags into their respective holders. The Kiwanis Club provides scholarships for graduating high school seniors with the money generated from placing flags and other events throughout the year.
