You can purchase a US flag that has flown over the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., by
ordering it from your US Representative or Senator.
Certificate of authenticity: You may request that your flag be flown on a certain date such as a birthday. A
certificate showing it was flown over the Capitol accompanies each flag. If you mention in your letter or on
your request form that this flag is for any specific occasion, that information will be included on the certificate.
If you are requesting a specific date, please make your request at least 4 weeks prior to that date.
Fabric and size of flags: All flags are made in the United States. The cotton flags come in two sizes: 3’x5’ or
5’x8’. The nylon flags come in the same size as the cotton and one additional size: 4’x6’.
Pricing: The specific prices vary from office to office. The prices include only the costs of the flag itself, the
certificate, and shipping and handling.
Order information: Check the websites of your Representatives and Senators.

Gold Award recipient’s full name
Gold Award recipient’s troop number, service unit number and council
A short description of the Gold Award Take Action Project
Date for an awards ceremony (if scheduled)
It is also courteous to include a self-addressed stamped envelope when writing to private individuals or
organizations. This is usually not necessary when writing to government officials.
Remember that the purpose of a congratulatory letter is to honor the Gold Award recipient and that each
person you write may be getting many, many requests. This is not a race or a contest to see who can get the
most letters. Often a few letters are more meaningful than a scrapbook full of letters that ends up on a shelf.
Sometimes the best thing is a letter or two from an admired prominent person, a state official like a governor,
a local official like a mayor, etc. You may also decide to request letters from members of a faith community
(contact information not included here).
Please pick and choose so that people who are willing to write a letter do not get overwhelmed and decide to
stop accepting requests.
In the tables below, high ranking females are in green. This document was updated in October 2013, please
excuse any inadvertent errors or out of date information. Thank you for kindly letting us know about updated
information or other prominent women to include at [email protected].
