We’re celebrating the 250th birthday of America by planting 15,000 flags on Estero Boulevard for the 4th of July. In order to make that happen we’ll need your help.
If you’d like to “adopt” a section of Estero Boulevard where you own a business or a home, send an e-mail to edryan@beachtalkradio.com so we can add you to our running list here and on our Facebook page. if you’d like to donate flags for the event, we’ve created an Amazon Wish List HERE. If you have any trouble with Amazon, the mailing address for the flags is: Ed Ryan – 12700 Vista Pine Circle – Fort Myers, FL 33913
After the event we will donate the flags to the Fort Myers Beach VFW.
A week before the 4th we will pass out the flags to volunteers and put them out on the Boulevard Friday, July 3rd.

Order placed!!
What a great option for us part timers who love Fort Myers Beach and want to help from afar. The Amazon link has a handful of options. Are those all acceptable and ones you have chosen? Just want to be sure since sometimes Amazon thinks they know what I should be buying and adds their own choices.
These flags are no longer available. Maybe give another option.
