Flags Abound

By Mike Rosso

Several months back I decided to make a slight change in the design of the Colorado Central website, coloradocentralmagazine.com. On the top banner, I incorporated the theme of the Colorado flag to reflect our connection to, and pride in, this great state.

Since then, I’ve begun to see the flag – in various incarnations – just about everywhere; on hats, T-shirts, bumper stickers, product labeling and more. I don’t think this is just coincidence. There seems to be a lot of overall pride in this state lately. Folks are glad to live here and are not shy about advertising that fact. Having lived in Colorado for  nearly 35 years, I’ve never seen this level of interest in the simple yet elegant design that is our state flag.

Designed by Andrew Carlisle Johnson, the official Colorado state flag was adopted on June 5, 1911.
