Pat Mellor’s article for the Washington County News mentioned that “secessionists thrust promotional buttons into the car windows” of vehicles that slowed down to watch Secession committee members put up the Confederate flag over St. George Boulevard on February 18, 1988. An identical badge and logo was used in advertising for the 1987 Secession, though with the year changed. Each year, residents could purchase these pin-back buttons in order to qualify for discounts at participating local businesses. | Source: Dixie Secession and Spirit of Dixie Fundraisers (WASH-076).
