Flag of Alaska 

The         state         flag of Alaska was designed by 13 year-old Bennie Benson from Chignik, Alaska in 1926. In

1926 there was a flag-designing competition for Alaska schoolchildren. Bennie’s design was chosen from 142 designs. Benny drew three flags. One had a dog sled and two dogs on a bright green field. Another one showed a large mountain and the yellow sun. The third one had stars on a blue field. This one became the winner.

It became the official flag in 1959 when Alaska became the 49th state of the USA. The blue colour means the blue sky and the forget-me-not, an Alaskan flower. The flag also has the North Star because Alaska is the north of America. Bennie’s prize was 1000 dollars and a watch with the picture of his flag on it. In 1963 Bennie gave this watch to the Alaska State Museum and it is still there.
