Dear Kingman Area Residents, Businesses, and Organizations,
The Kingman Economic Development Committee is proud to announce its American Flag Sponsorship Program. Every year, American flags line our Main Street from May through July, return in November, and fly year-round at our Veteran’s Memorial. These displays honor our nation, recognize our veterans, and create a powerful sense of community pride that welcomes visitors and residents alike.
The American Flag Sponsorship Program allows you to play a direct role in keeping this tradition alive. By sponsoring a flag for just $50, you help ensure that Main Street continues to showcase the values of patriotism, unity, and small-town pride. Sponsorship also supports community events and enhancements that make Kingman “A Great Place to Land.”
Each sponsor will be recognized on City social media pages throughout the year and on a sign displayed at City Hall. Our goal is to proudly display 50 new flags in honor of America’s 250th birthday in 2026 supporting a celebration of history, heritage, and the future of our community.
Please consider sponsoring today. Simply fill out the attached form and return it with a check to Kingman Flag Program, PO Box 168, Kingman, KS 67068, or drop it off at Kingman City Hall. Thank you in advance for your support. Together, we can honor our veterans, celebrate our nation, and ensure that Main Street remains a source of pride for generations to come.
Sincerely, Kingman Economic Development Advisory Committee

Here is a revised list of the tree trimmers available this week to assist residents with their trees. Sorry for the earlier typo!

Have a great Labor Day weekend!

🚫🌱 Don’t Mow Into the Street! 🌱🚫
When grass clippings are blown into the street, they don’t just disappear:
✔️ They wash into storm drains and cause blockages or localized flooding.
✔️ They end up in streams and rivers, where they add excess nutrients that harm fish and water quality.
✔️ They make roads slippery for bicycles and motorcycles, creating a safety hazard.
✅ Instead, mow so clippings stay on your lawn — they break down quickly, returning valuable nutrients to your soil.
Let’s work together to keep Kingman’s streets safe and clean!
Mow smart. Keep it off the street.
