Welcome
to the official website of the
Somerset County Flag Committee, Inc.
The Committee maintains
America's County Veterans Memorial Flag Plaza

The flag site was given an official name during 2019.
The name of the 501(c)3 non-profit organization did not change.

May 25, 2022

Please pause to visit the site to pay respect to the flag now flying. The current flag was donated to the Committee in 2009 by Woodmen of the World Lodge 19 of Somerset. It has flown and repaired often. Yes, it is faded and has served us well for many years. We plan to retire this flag after one more chance to fly her and honor her service.

May 27, 2022	We hoped the flag would give ua a month of service. She will fly through Memorial Day and then lowered for retirement.

THANKS

Again we wish to thank the community for your generous donations

Last year we asked to replace funds needed to repair damage to the flag and pole.  We hoped to receive $3,900; but; received almost $12,000. In addition , we are awaiting the completion of a new flag donated by the Somerset VFW.
