POSTER, POETRY & ESSAY CONTESTS - LAKELAND AREA WINNERS
Lakeland, FL – InnerAct
Alliance is proud to announce the winners of its Fifth Grade Rally for the Facts Poster, Poetry, and Essay Contest for Fifth Grade Students in the
greater Lakeland area schools. Contest participants will be recognized during
the Red Ribbon Fifth Grade Rallies, which take place on Wednesday, May 4, 2016,
at 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. at The Lakeland Center.
The prevention rallies
focus on reinforcing critical substance abuse resistance skills before students
enter middle school in the fall. Students were challenged to compose essays,
write poems, or draw posters to illustrate how they live their lives drug free
and show the truth about how most young people do not use drugs or alcohol. Overall
winners in each category will be awarded cash prizes of $100 (first place), $50
(second place), and $25 (third place).
Congratulations to Lakeland Area Rallies Contest Overall Prize Winners
