Flag Day is a day that Americans commemorate the adoption of the Stars and Stripes by celebrating the flag every June 14th. This day was chosen because on June 14, 1777 the Continental Congress approved the design of a national flag. Seamstress Betsy Ross was commissioned to create the new flag for the new nation. President Woodrow Wilson issued a presidential proclamation in 1916 making June 14th Flag Day. Over the past years the flag has changed 27 times. The last change was on July 4, 1960 to include the 50th state, Hawaii. The thirteen stripes on the flag represent the thirteen original colonies and the colors of the stripes, red and white, stand for the courage and purity of our nation. The stars stand for the fifty separate but united States of our nation. Flag Day is a great day to teach younger generations the significance of our flag.
