Kingman KS started its official flag contest in August 2019 and announced a
winner on January 23, 2020. The style guide is available on this page:
https://www.kingmancoks.org/DocumentCenter/View/607/Kingman-Flag-Style-Guide
It states:
"The elements of the flag represent both the city and
county of Kingman, Kansas. The gold chevron represents the Golden Valley of the
Ninnescah. The white sun represents the prosperity and forward- thinking of the
residents in each community in the Golden Valley, as well as the Sun Dance of
the Kiowa tribe that historically inhabited the area. Red and black are the
colors that are identified with the Unified Kiowa tribe, as well as being the
colors of the county’s two school districts.
The color red symbolizes the
boldness and courage of Kingman residents. The black color symbolizes strength
and authority. The gold color represents the rich resources and agricultural
heritage of the county. The white color symbolizes hope and aspirations for the
future."
