Overbrook PRIDE and the Overbrook betterment committee teamed together and applied for a $500 grant, which was awarded by the Overbook Community Foundation, to have a city flag designed and printed. With the grant, five flags were made. Two flag will be flown on the K. and Autie Mae memorial flag poles located at the grade school and baseball diamonds, one at the City Hall, one at the City Lake, and one was awarded to the flag design winner, Brian Elliott.

Design ideas were open to the public. Those participating were asked for a simple design that would include meaningful symbolisms, with a limit of three colors. The winner would be awarded a free flag, as well as $100 in prize money. Elliott donated his monetary prize back to PRIDE.
There were 14 designed submitted. The submissions were voted on by members of PRIDE on by members of PRIDE and the Betterment Committee, in which the members had no idea who the designers were.
The colors blue and red in Elliott's flag represent the USD 434 Santa Fe Trail school district, the white diagonal line Symbolizes the Santa Fe Trail, the sunflower represents the Kansas state flower, and the star is Overbrook's location in Kansas.
