the flag explanation: "The flag was dedicated on January 27th, 2009. The designer of the flag is Bob Reis. The artists states his reasoning for the description of the flag as follows: The flag show the paddle boat Irene Plied used to transport goods and passengers on the Mississippi for 1880-1925. The trees depict the logging industry, the wild rice the natural grain of Aitkin, the deer wildlife, the loons on every lake.
