There are a lot of flags that fly on LBI these days. The American flag has long flown high. Passersby can also catch the odd New Jersey state flag. With connections to both New York and Philadelphia, various sport teams are represented. Second homeowners and renters are big on college flags. And in recent years, certain political flags have served to let neighbors know where the household stands.

But there’s a new, distinctly nonpolitical flag that may be flying around the Island – a new LBI flag.
