The Flag Manufacturer’s Association of America (FMAA) proudly celebrates the 243rd birthday of the U.S. flag on flag Day, Sunday, June 14th, 2020, and encourages all Americans to join in the celebration and honor our nation’s great symbol by flying their American flag during National Flag Week. On June 14, 1777, within a year of achieving independence, the Founding Fathers gave the U.S. its first symbol with the message, The Flag of the United States be 13 stripes, alternate... red and white, that the Union be 13 stars, white on a blue field representing a new constellation. The idea of an annual day specifically celebrating the flag is believed to have first originated in 1885. Bernard J. Cigrand, a school teacher, arranged for his pupils to observe June 14th as the birthday of the flag. Cigrand later became a dentist and practiced in our corporate city of Batavia, IL. Dr. Cigrand continued to crusade to have June 14th recognized as a national holiday. In 1894, he and LeRoy VanHorn of Chicago, formed The American Flag Day Association, whose purpose was to conduct exercises in the interest of school children. Flag Day was officially established by the Proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson on June 14, 1916, calling for nationwide observance. The week of June 14th is designated at National Flag Week. While flying the flag is an important part of observing National Flag Week and Flag Day, FMAA (Flag Manufacturers Association of America) wants to ensure that the flags proudly displayed are true symbols of patriotism. When raising Old Glory for all to see, Americans are encouraged to look for the FMAA Certification Seal that ensures the flag is 100% Made in the USA.
