FlagRunners Flag Story

With more than 20 years of experience in the flag business, "we just like people who fly flags!" In the Spring of 2011, we rode our bicycles back to Chicago from the Indy 500 to look at hundred's of flags and flagpoles. Most were rigged with make-shift parts. We became the FlagRunners telling your flag story in order to help other's with their flags and flagpoles. The right flagpole parts leads to longer flag life. That's the FlagRunners mission.
