2024 American Flag Sponsorships
Dear Abilene Area Business/Resident/Organization:
Visitors to Abilene frequently comment on the beautiful American flags lining Buckeye Avenue and NW 3rd Street. The American flags are one of the many wonderful attributes that make our community stand out.
To continue this tradition, the City of Abilene’s Convention & Visitors Bureau is seeking sponsors for the American flags, which are placed on poles from I-70 along Buckeye Avenue to the south city limits and from Buckeye west on NW 3rd Street. The flags are flown from the Eisenhower Marathon weekend through Veterans Day. Because they are displayed for seven months, the flags and poles are more prone to wear and tear. The City of Abilene’s Public Works Department replaces them as needed.
Our goal is to purchase 200 flags for the 2024 season. The cost of each flag remains the same at $25, which includes the cost of the pole.
While the City of Abilene’s Public Works Department, Vyve Broadband, Abilene Rent-All, and Linder Electric install the flags on the light poles, we rely on the community to provide funding for this project.
We hope you will consider purchasing one or more flags this year. Please complete the enclosed form and return it to Julie Roller Weeks at the Abilene CVB by January 19, 2024.
Thank you in advance for your continued support!
