Observed each year on June 14, Flag Day commemorates the adoption of the United States flag by the Continental Congress in 1777. The resolution established the design of the flag as thirteen stripes, alternating red and white, with thirteen stars on a blue field representing a new constellation of states. Over time, the flag has evolved to reflect the growth of the nation, while remaining a powerful symbol of unity, freedom, and sacrifice. As we celebrate 250 years of American independence and Washington County’s rich history, we invite residents to join us under the flag that has united generations of Americans. Together, let us honor our nation’s past, celebrate our shared heritage, and reflect on the principles that continue to guide our future.
