The Ceremonial Flag pole at the All Veteran's Memorial was partially financed through the sale of engraved bricks.

From the Overland Station website: (visit link)

"The Ceremonial Flagpole located to the south of the All Veterans Memorial is 60-feet high and displays a 12'x18' United States flag, a 5'x8' Kansas flag, and a 4'x6' POW/MIA flag. It will be the location for many events and, due to its height and large flags, will be easily visible from many parts of the city. Special appreciation is extended to the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, WE-TA-SE American Legion Post 410 for sponsoring this important feature of the All Veterans Memorial." [end]
