🇺🇸 REMINDER: We need your help to make this year’s July 4th Flag Poster bigger than ever!

We’re bringing back our fold-out July 4th American flag poster in The Baker County Press, and this year’s response has already been amazing.

Our $250 Partner Sponsor spots are SOLD, but we still have $50 Community Sponsor spots remaining for businesses, churches, nonprofits, organizations, families, and individuals who want to be included.

This year is extra special as America celebrates its 250th birthday, and we want this poster to be something Baker County can proudly hang in windows, homes, offices, churches, businesses, and storefronts for Independence Day.

Your $50 sponsorship gets your name listed on the back of the poster with the local supporters helping make this patriotic community project possible. This year it will be in FULL color!!

❤️ Support local.
🤍 Celebrate freedom.
💙 Be part of Baker County’s America 250 celebration.

Only a few $50 spots remain.
Deadline to be included: Monday, June 29.

Comment FLAG, message us, or email [email protected] to claim one of the remaining spots. 🇺🇸✨
