FLAG PROJECT
To honor our flag and all it means, the Rotary Club of Deland has, as one of its signature projects, the Flag Project.
The Flag Project comprises putting out U.S. flags along Woodland Boulevard and New York Avenue in Downtown DeLand on patriotic holidays: Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Patriot Day, Veterans Day and Pearl Harbor Day. Additionally, we put out the flags on Election Day. Typically, beginning at 7:30 in the morning, we put up about 100-125 flags and retire them at 4:30 in the afternoon. Anyone is welcome to help in this very rewarding effort.
As flags fly in the breeze, they are subject to wind, rain and sunshine, all of which contribute to the flags’ deterioration over time. Periodically, we need to replace some of the flags. Indeed, even the poles upon which the flags hang suffer from the elements and require repairs or replacement. If you would like to contribute to our Flag Replacement Fund, please send a check to the Rotary Club of DeLand, P.O. Box 704, DeLand, FL 32721.
The Flag Project is just one of the activities that Rotary Club of DeLand members participate in to exemplify the Rotary Motto, “Service Above Self.” For more information about the Rotary Club of DeLand, check out our website www.delandrotary.org.
Larry Drumb -Flag Project Chairman & Past President
Rotarians from DeLand’s three Rotary Clubs (Rotary Club of DeLand, DeLand Breakfast Rotary Club, and Rotary Club of Downtown DeLand) were joined by members of the DeLand High School Interact Club for a Service Project at the DeLand YMCA Saturday, March 10, 2018.
The task was to paint the outside Pool Area including hallways leading to the outside Pool. Armed with brushes, rollers, scrapers, ladders, drop cloths, step stools, twenty gallons of paint, etc., the twenty-five energetic and enthusiastic volunteers accomplished the work in about three and a half hours.
The highlight of this Service Project is a Mural that was designed by and also is being painted by Mike Orr. In addition to the Rotary Logo and Motto, Mr. Orr’s mural has the names of the three DeLand Rotary Clubs and lists some significant Rotary projects. Proceeds from the DeLand Christmas Parade, which is sponsored by DeLand’s three Rotary Clubs, funded this YMCA Pool Painting Project.

Another successful service project for the Rotary Club of Deland! Saturday, February 17, 2018, about twenty Rotarians and Interact students descended upon the Drop-off Circle at DeLand High School. Armed with shovels, rakes, axes, a chain saw and a pressure washer, they weeded, planted fifty Coontie palms, trimmed Ligustrum trees, pressure washed the Rotary Four-Way Test Marker as well as the Memorial markers, spread one-hundred bags of eucalyptus mulch, and pressure washed as well as straightened the DeLand High School Home of the Bulldogs Sign. “Service Above Self.”
The 2017 Dictionary Party was a phenomenal success! Over eighty Rotarians, Interactors (DeLand High School, Trinity Christian Academy and St. Barnabas Episcopal School), Youth Exchange Students, friends and family members assembled the 125 boxes of dictionaries in record time Monday evening 8/21/17. Rotary stickers were placed on the outside of the books, Letters to Parents were placed inside the books and Rotary
Plates were affixed to inside the front covers. All in all, 3000 dictionaries were prepared for distribution to West Volusia third graders. Our Club was assisted in this effort by the DeLand Breakfast, Downtown DeLand and Debary-Deltona-Orange City Rotary Clubs.
ROTARY CLUB OF DELAND’S 2022 ROTARY ACHIEVERS
The Rotary Club of DeLand honored the sixty-one winners of its 2022 Rotary Achiever Awards at the May 19th luncheon at Wayne G. Sanborn Activity Center. Rotary Achiever Project Chair Bill Anderson praised the winners for their significant accomplishments as well as their leadership potential.
Rotary Achiever Awards are given annually to West Volusia elementary school students in the fourth and fifth grades who have exhibited the greatest increase in academic achievement during the school year, based on standardized reading tests. The main goal of the Rotary Achiever Program is to instill the concept of rewards received for effort expended.
Since 1997, the Rotary Club of DeLand has given out 987 Rotary Achiever Awards and invested over $127,000 in this program.
