The Mystic Flag Committee is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and celebration of Mystic's historical Liberty Pole and Liberty Pole Square. With the assistance of Boy Scout Troop 76, they proudly place the American flag along the sidewalks of Mystic on major holidays, while also maintaining the tall flag pole that has flown the Stars and Stripes over the Mystic River since 1862.
Located in downtown Mystic, Liberty Pole Square is a charming park adjacent to the S P Oyster House. It features a historical anchor from a lumber schooner that sank off Cape Cod in 1897. The Mystic Flag Committee's efforts, including the sale of their Mystic Liberty Pole history booklet, contribute to the maintenance of the Liberty Pole, Liberty Pole Square, and the display of sidewalk flags, ensuring the continued presence of the American flag in this historic area.
