Special thanks to our 30 local contest coordinators and their assistants. There were more than 530 participating students in the local contests statewide. We received 89 first-place winners that qualified for the state competition. Winning state entries were displayed at the Together We Advocate conference. Thanks to a generous donor, first-place entries were enlarged and displayed on easels. View the entries at ortl.org/contests
