This fountain and 120 ft. pole and American
flag is our gift to Columbia County, and it's
our wish that it be maintained and always
fly a 30 ft. x 50 ft. flag. May God continue to
bless us and keep us free.
This flag is dedicated to those who have
loved, fought and died for it.
Dedicated July 4, 1989 John 3:16
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
