How can we add flags to our town for patriotic holidays?

Patriotic holidays

Editor’s Idea: Could a club or youth mount a community drive to raise funds and purchase American flags with poles that could be placed along main downtown streets on holidays like July 4th or Labor Day?

It would need to include a place to store and maintain the flags, and someone to put them out and take them up. Buying in bulk could save on the flags, and possibly the city staff could drill holes for the poles.

Food is hospitality. Food is belonging.
But for some people, food is also calculation.
Before the appetizers even arrive, some of us are already scanning ingredients, evaluating risk, rehearsing questions, and trying to determine whether asking those questions is about to make everyone at the table uncomfortable.
