Congratulations to...
The Big Write Contest Winners!
SLWG designed and administered a youth writing contest for kids in grades 4 through 8! Our co-sponsor was BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOPS, which provided cash awards and merchandise prizes from their stores. The Rams donated tickets to first place winners and other prize sponsors included Raging Rivers and Six Flags. There were 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners—and three Honorable Mention awards given out in two grade level categories: (1) 4th and 5th and (2) 6th through 8th grades.
