South Dakota could wave farewell to its current flag
Dozens of legislators want to replace South Dakota’s venerable state flag with a design by a Spearfish artist.
Rep. Bernie Hunhoff, D-Yankton, and more than 80 other lawmakers support HB 1235, which would adopt a flag featuring a sunburst, a Native American medicine wheel and concentric blue circles. It was designed in 1989 by Dick Termes of Spearfish. (Rapid City Journal, 01/26/2012)
