Commemorative Garden Flags

The Village of Oak Lawn is proud to announce the sale of commemorative garden flags to all interested parties to help celebrate Oak Lawn’s 100th anniversary. The flags are 12 inches by 18 inches and come with a decorative “shepherd’s hook” to assist you in proudly displaying the flag in your yard, your garden, or even at your place of business. The flags will be available for $15.00 and will be sold at the Village Hall Cashier’s window. All flags purchased before we receive our first shipment will be delivered. Once we have taken delivery of the flags, they will be available for direct purchase. The flags will also be sold at the many events that have been planned in the coming months to celebrate our 100 years as a Village. Please join us and show your pride in Oak Lawn by displaying this garden flag in a prominent spot at your home or place of business!
Blue Star Memorial Marker Dedication
May 25, 2009
Two years ago, members of the Oak Lawn Garden Club realized that the responsibility for the restoration of the Blue Star Memorial Highway Marker rested on their shoulders. At first, it was a slow process, we all crawl before we walk and finally we ran with it. Today we have reached the finish line and we are honored and humbled to share the completion of our goal with you.
The Blue Star Memorial Highway Marker is a public expression of our deeply felt gratitude to the men and women in the Armed Forces of the United States, who have served, are serving and will serve' to protect and defend our nation and our freedom.
