Fowler is a village in Clinton County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 1,136 at the 2000 census.
History:
Originally called "Dallas", Fowler was created when John Parks settled the area and became its first postmaster in 1849. The town subsequently moved to a tract of land owned by J. N. Fowler and in 1869 the name was changed to "Fowler". In 1885, the town incorporated as a village in Clinton County, reportedly during a high growth lumber boom. In 2004, Fowler remains a small rural community, serving the needs of the local farming community and as a satellite community to Lansing, Michigan.

The flag is blue with a large white lozenge, and FOWLER, MICHIGAN, SMALL TOWN, BIG SPIRIT written in white along the four edges of the lozenge. In the lozenge is a US eagle with the national shield on its breast, and a ring of blue stars around it. The date 1857 is written on a red ribbon.
The Village of Fowler website fowlermi.com explicitly identifies this flag as the official flag of the village.

"The official flag of the Fowler Sesquicentennial was designed last year by Steven Thelen, a fourth-grader."
