Amber Helmer, winner of the 2009 Aboriginal Day Live Flag Contest

Congratulations to Amber Helmer of Cornwall, Ontario, winner of APTN's third annual National Aboriginal Day Live Flag Contest. Her winning design, entitled "Connected", was chosen from a total of 272 entries received from across Canada. As part of her prize, the fifteen-year-old artist received a trip to Winnipeg to be part of Aboriginal Day Live, a cash prize of $400, and $750 towards the purchase of a new computer for her school. Amber's design was made into a flag that is flying above APTN headquarters in Winnipeg.
