Flag City, USA

The United States Congress has designated Redmond, Oregon as: "Flag City USA"! Who we are...what we do: The Downtown Redmond Flag Committee is an ad hoc group of patriotic business people, civic and veteran organizations, other community leaders and individual volunteers. We have set a goal: we intend to be known as "Flag City, USA". To reach this objective we are lining the streets of Redmond, Or

egon with flags on various patriotic days and holidays. "Lining the streets" with flags requires two things: flags and manpower. We have a collection of over 1400 standard size American flags & it is continually growing! If you look closely at any of the flags you will see that each is embroidered with a name. We encourage you to purchase your own flag (which can be done through our website, www.flagcityusa.us). We depend on your generosity and patriotism! Manpower takes the obvious form of putting up and taking down the flags & comes in the form of community volunteers. There are also other jobs such as drilling and cleaning flag holes in the spring, washing flags, etc. This is provided by the Committee and the various organizations and individuals who wish to help in this effort.
