The flag that will represent La Leonesa:
Yesterday they opened the envelopes
containing the projects of the flag for La Leonesa.
The jury was made up of
Daniel Svensson of ceremonial and protocol of the province, Professor Vanina
Busccafusca and Professor Marcos Antonio Ferrau. After debating each project,
they chose Víctor Álvarez's.
The winner of the contest, Víctor Álvarez,
wrote on his Facebook wall the meaning of the flag.
WINNER OF THE
CONTEST "La Leonesa, mi Bandera"
This proposal presents in its design
component elements whose meanings are the following:
1.- Two main fields in
light blue and white and a smaller green stripe.
The light blue color
represents the sky that shelters us and in accordance with the color of the
National Flag, respectively.
The color white, purity and peace. In them there
is a green stripe that represents our fields and their fertility, at the same
time that it links us to our Provincial Flag, which has the same color on one of
its cloths.
2.- A circle in the center, whose halves are distributed
precisely in the division of the light blue and white cloths and rests its base
on the green stripe, that is, on the Chaco soil.
3.- Within the central
circle are located:
a.- A rising sun with straight rays, which at the same
time, represent the lion's mane and whose meaning suggests the idea of sprouting
every day, with a new opportunity to face life in the light and heat of it.
b.- The frontal face of a lion, signifying the name of the Spanish Province from
which the feminine name attributed to Ángela Fernández originates, one of the
first settlers of our town and therefore, in which all the locals are
represented.
c.- In the lion's mind (in the mind of all of us), progress. An
ascending construction, in steps of bases and strong, solid and united columns,
as La Leonesa has proven to be since its origins to achieve its objectives.
d.-In the lower semicircle, its field and one of its main productions are shown,
represented by two rice pacúes, who frame the great local festival, and
distinguishing La Leonesa as one of the most important towns in this aspect.
e.-The grains of rice in metaphor of laurels. A product that identifies La
Leonesa as the main producer of this cereal - which is exported to the world -
and surrounds it as a symbol of abundance and prosperity.

The photo is from 2013 so it is possible that the flag is changed as
the logo is little updated.
