Flag Design Competition

COMPETITION IS BORN

Cath and Steve Angier, the owners of Brooklyn’s original post office have gone to great lengths to restore their beautiful building and flagpole. It is without doubt a feature of our village. Being originally from Texas, Steve has suffered a little ambivalence between flying the flag of his birthplace and that of his home nation.              

“If only Brooklyn had its own flag, we’d proudly fly that.”

Local Brooklyn identities met one afternoon at the Anglers Rest agreed that a flag design competition for Brooklyn involving the local school, children and adults alike would provide a celebration of the unique identity of our village as well as a distinctive flag to fly on the many poles by its many vexillophiles.

Other river communities have flags. BROOKLYN NEEDS A FLAG !! 

Prize “Major Bragging Rights”and a small cash prize.
