You may have noticed a new flag flying high above the Jackson Civic Center. The City has a new 5 by 8 foot flag that is the result of a design contest held last fall. Janet Davis, the winner of the contest, included 47 stars in the design to represent the 47 miners who perished in the 1922 Argonaut Mine Disaster. The new flag is so popular; the City has received numerous requests to purchase one. Mike Daly, Jackson’s City Manager, will look into the cost of getting a group order together for smaller 3 by 5 foot flags, as the individual cost is a pricey 175 dollars. If you’d like to put in a request, you can call the City at 223-1646.
