UPDATE: After a year-long legal dispute, the flagpole project is back. Attorney fees and other related expenses took all the money that I personally contributed, but customer donations are still there. Let's get this project going again!
Your help is needed to raise and maintain the largest Confederate battle flag in northeast Georgia! A 20'x30' flag has already been purchased and is just waiting for an 80' pole. An estimated $30,000-$34,000 is needed for the project: $21,600 for the aluminum pole with an internal halyard, and between $6,000 and $10,000 for the installation (depending on how much rock is below the surface) - plus 8% State and County sales tax. The picture above shows what the flagpole will look like once it's installed (for perspective, the poles currently flying the three national flags of the Confederacy are 25' in height).
The physical location of The Rebel Shop is on U.S. Highway 441 in Clayton, Georgia - next to Walmart, The Home Depot and Tractor Supply. This is an important route that leads into the scenic mountains of western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. It is travelled by thousands of motorists each week and tens of thousands during the summer months. The flag will be clearly visible from about a mile away.
2.5% of all purchases on this website will be used for the purchase and installation of the flagpole and its subsequent maintenance and the repair or replacement of flags as needed. As of October 15, 2025, $4,200 has been raised for this project. If you would like to donate additional funds, please select your desired amount in the pull down menu below. This amount can be multiplied by changing the number in the quantity box. PLEASE NOTE: the shopping cart will automatically add a shipping charge. This amount will be refunded unless you specify otherwise in the comment box at checkout. Hopefully this inconvenience will be fixed soon. Checks/money orders may also be mailed to:
