San Marcos proclaims June 14, 2025 as Flag Day; civic groups encourage ceremonies
Summary
Mayor Jane Hughson proclaimed June 14, 2025 Flag Day in San Marcos and community heritage groups urged residents to display the flag and participate in ceremonies.
Mayor Jane Hughson proclaimed June 14, 2025, as Flag Day in San Marcos, reciting the history of the American flag and calling on residents to display it at homes and businesses and to participate in community ceremonies.
The proclamation noted the Continental Congress adopted a resolution establishing the American flag on June 14, 1777, and cited President Woodrow Wilson's 1916 call for Americans to observe Flag Day. The mayor's reading asked citizens to "renew their personal commitment to the enduring ideas of freedom, liberty, and justice for all."
Representatives of civic heritage organizations—identified in the meeting as the Texas Ranger Society, Children of the American Revolution and the Captain Thomas Moore chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution—encouraged the community to mark the day with appropriate ceremonies and displays.
The proclamation is ceremonial and does not change city policy or funding. Community groups urged participation in local Flag Day observances on June 14.
