CLEARLAKE, Calif. – On Wednesday, the city of Clearlake continued the annual tradition of raising the large American flag in Austin Park, which is donated each year by the Park Study Club.

Members of the Park Study Club, Clearlake Police Department and Public Works Department, Mayor Russ Cremer, and Council Member Phil Harris were present, along with the Lake County Military Funeral Honors Team to properly raise the 600-square-foot flag.

“The Park Study Club has been generous enough to continue donating the American flag for Austin Park year after year. The raising of Lake County’s largest flag is always an awe-inspiring sight,” said Clearlake City Manager Alan Flora.
