After more than a year and a half, the Evansville Flag Competition has narrowed the new city flag submissions from 322 to 21 finalists.
In honor of Veteran’s Day, the final round of voting will be initiated this Saturday, November 11th at the Gresham House (2 Wedeking Avenue, Evansville IN 47710). There the Evansville Flag Competition will host a James Bethel Gresham Remembrance Event from 3-5 pm in honor of his military service and sacrifice as the first WWI soldier to die in America.
The final 21 flags will be unveiled, and voting will begin. Additionally, miniature flags and stickers will be sold for $4 at local businesses beginning Saturday, with 100% of the proceeds donated to support the homeless Veteran residents at the Gresham House.
