JASPER COUNTY FLAG

1
Option A - Current FlagOn June 12, 1976, during a Flag Day celebration sponsored by the Newton Woman’s Club, the Jasper County Flag, original in design and worked in needlepoint by the Woman’s Bicentennial Committee members was presented on behalf of the club to the citizens of Jasper County as a symbol of our County’s being the oldest recorded spot in the United States for this rare bird the “Prairie Chicken.” It was accepted as the county’s official flag. Jasper County has a unique flag that features needlepoint work. This is a one-of-a-kind flag however because it is in needlepoint it is hard to reproduce.

Option C - Unity Flag of Stars, Fields and RiverThe Royal Blue of the flag symbolizes patriotism. The Circle on the flag symbolizes unity. the unity of the government and the people of Jasper County. The Smaller Stars symbolize the eleven townships within the borders of Jasper County. The Large Star symbolizes Jasper County. The Blue River represents the Embarras River a natural stream of water running through the county. The Fields depicted in Orange symbolize agriculture and grown.

Option D - Modified Liberty FlagJasper County was named for Sergeant William Jasper who distinguished himself in the defense of Fort Moultrie (then called Fort Sullivan) on June 28, 1776. When a shell from a British Warship shot away the flagstaff, he recovered the South Carolina flag in the Battle of Sullivan’s Island, raised it on a temporary staff, and held it under fire until a new staff was installed. Governor John Rutledge gave his sword to Jasper in recognition of his bravery. This flag would honor the namesake of our County with the incorporation of the Moultrie Flag (also known as the Liberty Flag) the crescent moon and blue background is taken from that flag. We are all proud Americans, and this flag features the Great Seal of the United States. Instead of an olive branch and arrows, the talons are holding Corn and Wheat, reflecting our ag-dominated community. The eagle also symbolizes our School Mascot.
