1. The name SOWEGANS is inclusive for all who live in Southwest Georgia (aka SOWEGA). The 14 stars represent all the counties that make up SOWEGA. This is our club!

2. The beautiful shoals spider lily is prominent on the Flint River, growing exclusively in rock crevices during May.

3. Our colors, navy and green, reflect the beauty of our rivers, streams, and forests. Formerly known as the Artesian City, Albany has a wealth of water resources and wildlife. 

4. Center of the crest is the alligator snapping turtle. It's prominent in the Flint River and the largest freshwater turtle in Georgia. But mainly, we really like turtles in these parts. The meaner looking, the better.
