Description of the flag

I was sent a digitalized drawing of the township flag and seal by the township officials. The flag is a blue field with the township seal in the center.

Seal

The seal is made of a red ring with the township, county, and state names on them. The disk is divided into four quarters with a grey horizontal oval in the center depicting the establishment year. In each of the four corners is a different symbol. The first quarter shows a river with an Indian headdress and the phrase "A long way straight". The phrase is the translation of Connoquenessing in English. The river is meant to represent the Connoquenessing Creek, which is the namesake of the Township. The headdress represents the natives who once lived in the area. The second quarter shows a Ferris wheel with a plane flying near it. These represent the Butler County Air Show and farm show. The third quarter shows a vintage tractor with corn fields in the background, which represents agriculture. The fourth quarters shows an oil well and a full minecart with crossed pickaxes. This represents the coal mining and oil industries that dominated the industrial years of the county.
