Our Projects

Avenue of Flags

An Evening at The Ranch 2026

Avenue of Flags

Avenue of Flags was a donation of 

44 Flag Poles finished in 

November 2021


Bakersfield is one of the only National Cemeteries we are aware of that keeps flags up year round, because of the prohibitive replacement cost.


The public continues to comment how much they love to see the flags up when they visit the grounds, but the wear and tear from the winds and weather are very hard on the flags. 

The committee fundraises to purchase the 44 new beautiful American flags for the public to enjoy.
