FAQ’s

Can I sign up if I live in an apartment?

Unfortunately, we are unable to place flags in apartment complexes.

Are there HOA rules about placing flags in our yard?

In the State of Texas (HB 2779), a HOA may not prevent a homeowner from flying the US flag, provided it is in good condition and displayed appropriately.

When does the subscription begin?

Subscriptions may begin at any time and run one year from the date of purchase.

How are flags installed?

Rebar is driven into the ground and the flag placed over the rebar. The rebar will be placed and removed each time the flag is installed.

Do I have to be present for installation?

No, you do not have to be present.

May I choose where the flag is placed?

If you are present, you may request a specific location, and the installers will do their best to accommodate your choice. Otherwise, flags will be placed near the corner of your driveway and the sidewalk or street.

What if there is an obstacle in the standard location?

Installers will adjust placement so that the flag will fly freely.

Isn’t the flag supposed to be illuminated at night? And what about bad weather?

We do not provide lights, but we do encourage you to place a small solar powered light to shine on the flag. In the event of inclement weather, please remove the flag and shelter it in your garage or home for the duration.

What happens if I move during my subscription period?

If your new home is also within the McNeil HS attendance boundaries, we are happy to transfer your subscription to your new address. Please email fundraising@mcneilband.org to notify us of the change.

If you move outside of our boundaries, please email fundraising@mcneilband.org to cancel your subscription. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide refunds.
