Flag Count – Memorial Day 2020

Early Monday morning, we made a circle around Holliston counting homes and businesses along the route that displayed a flag or other patriotic display.

In total we viewed over 450 homes and businesses.  99 of those locations had a flag, bunting, or wreath on display.  That is about 22% overall (up 1% from our July 4, 2020 tally).

We captured some photos along the way of displays that caught our eye.

Here are the streets we surveyed:

Central Street from Washington Street to the Millis Town Line

• 103 locations; 21 flags / displays = 20%

Highland Street from the Medway Town line to the Ashland Town line

• 131 locations; 29 flags / displays = 22%

Ashland Street from Ashland Town line to Gooch’s corner, Concord Street from Gooch’s corner to Rosinni’s corner

• 124 locations; 26 flags / displays = 21%

Mudville: Pleasant, Union, Exchange, Mechanic, Spring, and School Streets

• 97 locations; 23 flags / displays = 24%

Thank you Holliston for supporting one another and our nation at this difficult time in our world.

Stay safe. Chris and Yvette Cain
