In celebration of National Counties Month in April, the Polk County Board of Commissioners conducted a contest for Polk County High School students to design a possible new county flag. Commissioners announced during its June 2 meeting that Chris Morris (front right) won the contest. Morris received a $200 scholarship from the county. Pictured shaking Morris’ hand is Polk County Commissioner chair Ted Owens with his mother Susan Morris, brother Jesse Morris and father Chad Morris.  Pictured in back are commissioners Tom Pack, Keith Holbert, Michael Gage and Ray Gasperson.
