The annual TD I ThinkFirst! Contest encourages students in grades K-8 from across Canada to submit creative art projects, explaining in their own words why and how they “ThinkFirst!” to prevent injury when they are active at play, school or at home. With the ongoing support of TD Bank Group, the top 3 individual submissions were awarded with a helmet and a $100 gift card to a sporting goods store. The 1st place winner also received classroom set of helmets. Congratulations to all!
