Avenue of Flags Registration Listing

Underwood Avenue of Flags (2025)

The Underwood High School Junior Optimist International Club (JOI Club) and the Underwood Optimist Club are proud to once again offer an annual subscription to celebrate six national holidays by lining the streets of Underwood with American Flags. Annual Subscription is $40 per flag per year (plus a one-time $3 Servicing Fee for online enrollment). Subscription service is limited to addresses within the Underwood City limits. All proceeds support the JOI Club and Optimist Club’s activities and projects. Thanks Underwood residents for your awesome support!

Club volunteers will place a 3’x5’ nylon American Flag on a 10-foot pole in front of your home or business on the following national holidays: Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Patriot Day, and Veteran’s Day. (*Please note that in case of severe weather (snow, ice, violent storms, or heavy rain), for the safety of our club members, we may not put out flags.)

Club volunteers will generally install the flags one day (minimum) before the holiday and retrieve them sometime after the holiday.


NEW SUBSCRIBER?
If you have not previously subscribed, be aware that a receptacle will be installed approximately 3’-10’ from the street in front of your home or business and will remain year-round. We will contact Iowa One-Call before placing receptacles, so utilities are not disturbed. We need approximately 2 weeks' notice to get the receptacle placed. The receptacle will be just above ground level with a red cap so as not to interfere with normal mowing but is visible to us. If you can help us remove vegetation and debris around the cap it will help us greatly to find them.

For anyone who would like to have more than one flag (add another subscription) at your home or business, you may do so. You may also want to donate a subscription to someone else’s home or business.


Annual Subscription enrollment will begin each year in January and close by May 15th to ensure sufficient time to place receptacles and put up flags by Memorial Day. Prior year subscribers will receive an email annually to remind you to renew your subscription.

Any questions, please contact Barb Robertson 402-670-8029 (text or call) or email: [email protected].

Thank You for your support!
