And
the Winners Are....
The call for entries in a Cooperative Living youth
art contest brought forth an avalanche of wonderfully colorful, creative
drawings and paintings. The youthful artists were asked to submit artwork
with a general outdoor theme. A panel of six judges pored over dozens of
entries in six classifications in a very difficult task, picking the top
three winners of each category.
When all was said and done, the judges selected the
following slate of winners. The Best-in-Show entry, shown on the cover of
this magazine, will receive a $100 check. The first-place winners in each
of the six categories will receive $25 checks.
The judges awarded Honorable Mention recognition to
the following artists for the work they submitted in the contest: Savannah
Acheson, Sam Alley, Karis Bachman, Jessica Bender, Ramana Briggs, Heather
Bright, Sara Burke, Sarah Butler, Emma Byler, Maria Carias, Kyliesha J.
Cheatham, Kesler Coalson, McKenna Coalson, Brett Cole, Caitlin Cole,
Leslie Cole, Matthew Cole, Alex Collier, Brittany Collier, Sam Combs,
Delron Crowder, Ebony Crowder, Cody Dail, Brittany Dailey, Mikaela Dean,
Daniel Dockery, Jake Dooley, Rachel Dooley, Sammie Evans, Hannah Fakoury,
Stephanie Figgins, Jonah Fragala, Crystal Grant, Lauren Groves, Andrew
Gunn, Mackenzie Hand, Andrew T. Harkess, Jaren Herald, Justin Herald,
Mallory Hicks, Ashlynn Hostetler, Miranda Jessee, Joshua Lowrance, Haylea
Liggett, Alli Markham, Alex McDowell, Amber Meadows, Beth Merrill, Rose

response, the magazine will plan similar art contests for future issues.
