Every year the Optimist Club provides flags to subscribing members of the Community, and Community youth clubs and organizations help to provide the legwork under the supervision of Optimist Club members to set them up and take them down for each of the 5 flag holidays throughout the year. In return, the Optimist Club makes a monetary donation to each club. Sacred Heart has provided teams for 2 routes on every flag holiday for the last several years, and we've been asked to do that again this year.
We use the funds raised primarily toward our NCYC trip every two years. For each route, we need to provide either 2 high school students or 1 middle school student plus a parent. It is also permitted for 2 parents to be a team. For families who don't have any students who will be attending NCYC in the future, the funds earned can be used toward Wednesday night Youth RE tuition or can be donated to the general youth ministry program.
