The Town Council of the Town of Grimshaw on 8th of March 2000 announced Faye
Allen as the winner of the contest for the town flag. Allen's design
incorporates Grimshaw's main industries of agriculture, transportation and oil.
Whole design presents a rectangular shape divided in 4 fields - 2 blue and 2
white, and "GRIMSHAW" across the flag in blue and white, depending of the field
in which it lays. First field - white shows a plant, second field - blue shows a
truck, third field - blue shows a train, and the fourth field - white shows an
oil derrick.
Information and image of the flag thanks to Jenny Wallace,
Municipal Director, Town of Grimshaw
