| Flags Across America has completed two exiciting projects at Fort Seward. The first being our wooden walking path from the musuem to the flag. It is now easier to get to the flag with this beauty walking path, that takes you on a trip around the fort grounds. Flags Across America is also excited to announce our "Paving Stone Project". If you have a member of the family that was in the military, you may now purchase a paver brick to honor them. Just $25 per brick. The paver bricks have the person's name, rank, and what war they were in. Flags Across America has completed a paving stone walk way around the flag. When you reach the flag on our wooden walking path, you are greeted by our Donors Monumem, with the list of friends and business that support us. The path ends at a paving brick walk way, with the names of honored services men. It is quiet a site to see. Please email us below if you are interested in honoring a service man or woman. |

| Now into our second year it has been exciting to say the least! Thank you the many fine folks for stopping up and looking at ND's largest America Flag. Our visitors were way up with this addition to Fort Seward. With the price of gas going up cement is very hard to come by. Due to cost of cement the look of the memorial will take on a new and exciting look. Visit our sister site at www.tumbleweednetwork.com/flagsjamestown.html |

| The idea for Flags Across America in Jamestown, came about on June 14th, Flag Day 2003 when members of the 20th Infantry Regiment traveled to Willey Park north of Aberdeen, South Dakota to help with a "Flags Across America" dedication. The size of the pole and flag was awe inspiring and the park was full of people attending the dedication. There were 250 Boy scouts, Cub Scouts, and Girl scouts holding the emonrmous flag over their heads as they brought it to the pole to be raised. Dignitaries spoke, bands played and the Fort Randall and the 20th Infantry historical reenactment groups fired their cannons in salute of it's inital raising. This event made us dream of having a gigantic pole and flag at Fort Seward with all of the pomp and circumstance of a great flag rising with various dignitaries, groups, clubs, and organizations in attendance. On Flag Day, June 14th, 2005, we celebrated the raising of the flag with our formal celebration on the Fourth of July. Many activities have been held there since the raising. |
