Mrs Edith Cole, a local amateur artist, helped with preliminary sketches. The dominant colour is dark green for the forests and farming, red represents the railroad and the role it played in the development of the area as it served as a lifeline to early settlers. Blue represents the lakes and sky. The gold was to celebrate the city's golden anniversary. Another source attributes it to the gold mining industry.
