Fairview Park is a town in Clinton Township, Vermillion County, Indiana,
United States. The population was 1,496 at the 2000 census. - from Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairview_Park,_Indiana.
"This flag was
designed by Leonard William Akers Jr of Fairview Park, Indiana. It was adopted
as the town of Fairview Park's Official Flag at the town council meeting August
13, 2002. After adoption the flag was presented to the town as a gift by the
Akers family in commemoration of the town's Centennial Birthday. It was publicly
displayed for the first time in what is believed to be the first ever parade in
the town of Fairview Park, also organized by Leonard William Akers Jr.. After
that display it will be flying from the flag pole at the corner of Washington &
3rd Street in Fairview Park, by the town hall and firehouse.
The image in the center of the circles is that of the "old town hall"
building the only historic landmark in Fairview Park. The old town hall building
was built in 1936 by the W.P.A., and is believe to be the only W.P.A. building
that was built to be a government building and has been used for nothing else in
the state of Indiana. The lettering is the same as used by the Clerk Treasurer's
official seal. The flag's colors were chosen by the Akers family."
