Baldwin City

The flag of Baldwin City, Kansas, is an indigo field with an orange curved line going up before stalling and then going up again. In the middle is a yellow sixteen-pointed star with an orange maple leaf in the middle.
==Symbolism==
The sixteen-pointed star references a sunflower, Kansas's state flower, the Santa Fe trail markers, and gardens all over Baldwin City awash with colorful flowers, while the color yellow speaks of turning toward joy and opportunity. It is the color of sunflowers, and also of many autumn maple leaves. The maple leaf in the center of course references the Festival and also the maple leaf trees all over town, brilliant in the fall. Perhaps the creative energy and success spoken of in the color orange is why it's also the official color of Baker University. The curving line references the Santa Fe trail, tracing a path through the indigo that is a meeting of purple and deep blue to represent both the Baldwin Schools' purple and Baker University's navy. Indigo represents integrity in tradition.Baldwin City, Kansas on CRW Flags
