Avalon's flag seems to be a blue-white-green vertical triband charged with
emblem on the white stripe. A photo can be seen at

Avalon is in Cape May County, New Jersey. There
is a photo with a rather indistinct view of the Cape May County flag at
http://cmcpoliceacademy.org/memorial.html. The flag is red at the fly end -
the rest is hard to determine because of glare and shadow, but in any case, not
the white flag appearing with the Avalon flag in the pages found by Dov.

From
http://www.belmar.com/history/flag.html:
The first flag was the one carried by the Belmar Battalion, N.J. Militia Reserve
and was made by Mrs. Wm. Ripley Cobb. The painting of the Coat of Arms on the
Flag was the work of Phillip Brunin. This flag was first shown to the public on
the evening of April 18th, 1918, when it was formally entrusted to the Battalion
by his Honor Mayor George W. Van Note. The colors of the Municipal Flag are
Jersey Blue and Colonial Buff. These are distinctly New Jersey colors and were
first selected by George Washington, because New Jersey as well as New York were
originally settled by the Dutch and Jersey Blue and Buff figured in the
Netherlands Insignia.
No image is provided, although the coat of arms can be seen at
