I’m looking for a flag holder for my hitch and wondered if anyone has them at the GSMJI in Pigeon Forge TN. My trip is cancelled but I’ve some friends who will be going who said that they would pick me up one. Two vendors were there last year is one better than the other or just get a cheap one off Amazon.

Other than holding 1, 2 or 3 flags has anyone put together an awning to cover a small area behind the truck using the flag poles?

I have looked at the huge ones designed for a camp setup, but I was thinking about something smaller to be used when at a Jeep event and you just need a little shaded area to keep the sun and rain out, while sitting in a lawn chair.

Of course it will need to be “bolted together“ so a small gust of wind won’t send it sailing off into your neighbors windshiel…

Any ideas…suggestion…

I’ve had this in my cart for a while. Would also be good for lunch stops on the trail.

This is more of what I am looking for!

I started putting together some pvc similar to this design, but like this better!

Thank you

I think you can probably just stick an umbrella inside any hitch style flag mount to be honest. I got a single hitch flag mount with a flag pole just last week. Haven’t flown it yet because the only flag I have is the blue line flag and I live in the hood 😂

The good news is that the weather won't be as brutal as last year. I'm also looking for a shade option but want to figure a way to mount it to the front if I can.

Last year it was so incredibly hot…

If you figure a way to mount it to the front that would be great…keep us posted if you figure it out
