Designed by Earl Kitchener Ward of Langford, British Columbia, in 1958.

The tartan was adopted at the time, and is currently still used, as the altar cloth for the Freemason's Lodge: Centennial-King George Lodge No. 171, within the Grand Lodge of British Columbia and Yukon. - 2013 — Centennial-King George Lodge No.171 (tartans-authority, record)
