The Playground coloring contest received so many wonderful entries, the judges had a hard time deciding on the winners. Along with the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes for each grade level, they also wanted to note other colorings of which they were especially fond…(because all of the entries were winners in their eyes).
As a result, they selected a number of “honorable mentions” for each grade level.
We are delighted with the results of the contest about 150 entries, and we hope the winners enjoy their prizes.
The prizes were bike helmet and water bottles) and krypton bike locks provided by youth cycles and pumpkins.
