The Jourdanton Garden Club sponsored their third “Don’t Be a Litterbug” contest, which was open to all elementary children, grades one through five. It was especially difficult this year as the club had over 120 entries, with beautiful posters and written essays. All the winners received Wal-Mart gift certificates and Dairy Queen tokens.

Winners of the poster contest from the younger category were Marvin Farris, 1st place; Sydney Blair and Destinee Farris, 2nd place and M’Lynn Greigo, honorable mention. In 3rd through 5th grade category the winners were Kassandra Garcia, 1st place; Averie Villereal, 2nd place and honorable mentions went to Kristin Mueller and Taylor Fojtik. THe winning posters will be displayed at the library and all artists may pick up their poster at the library anytime during the month.

The winners of the written contest in grades three through five went to Danience Mueller, 1st place; Claire Vyvlecka, 2nd place and honorable mentions to Jordan Wallace, Amber Garcia and Julia Garcia. These students developed our theme and made an impressive written report.

We thank everyone that entered. We also appreciate the wonderful support we received from the third grade teachers, Mrs. Hartung and Mrs. Moring at Jourdanton Elementary School and from Mrs. Riley. Let’s all remember to be proud of our town and keep Jourdanton “litter free.”
