Frederick County, Maryland, will have a new standard strung up its flagpoles after soliciting new designs from a contest, the county announced this week.
The old flag dated to a similar 1976 contest, whicha red-and-white striped flag emblazoned with the figure of Francis Scott Key pointing to a blue circle containing the shape of Frederick County in yellow.
The new flag ditches Key and the shape of the county, instead relying solely on colors and shapes. The winning design was submitted by county resident Marc DeOcampo, and features the red, black, yellow, and white prominent in the Maryland state flag. It won 35% of the 3,000 votes cast in the final round.
The new design has, from top left to bottom left, a yellow, red, black, and white quadrant. Each quadrant is separated from the others by a colored stripe with an arrow point facing towards the center.
