Aug. 9th 2013  It's That Time of Year Again!!!
       It's that time of year again and we are off and running.  It is just a few days before we have those bright shiny faces of the kids in the halls of Highland.  No matter how old you get, there is just something exciting about the first days of school.  I have so many wonderful ideas and art experiences to share with our kiddos this year. 
      For starters we will kick off the year with a poster contest; listed below are the details:



Children’s Day Celebration
Poster Contest



On Wednesday, November 20, 2013 our community will be celebrating Children’s Day.  Children’s Day is a day dedicated to honoring and celebrating our children and looking for ways to improve our children’s welfare. A Children’s Day poster contest will be one of the many activities leading up to this day.

The Children’s Day Celebration poster contest is open to all school students in Barren County. Our theme for the poster contest is “Children’s Day Celebration”. The posters should measure 12”X18”.

Four winners will be chosen from all schools (1 winner from High School students, 1 winner from Middle School students, and 2 winners from Elementary school students). Winners will receive a $50 Chamber Gift Certificate. Poster winners will be displayed at the Plaza Theatre and will be used to promote Children’s Day next year.

The poster contest entries will be accepted through September 24th. Students are asked to write their name, grade, and school on the back of each poster. Each school will choose their top three entries and these three entries will be dropped off at Community Medical Care which is located at 200 South Race Street, Glasgow. The top poster will then be chosen to use as the logo for our Children’s Day Celebration t-shirt, and to promote our event. Pre-orders for t-shirts will begin October 7th and end on November 6th. The costs of the t-shirts will be $10.

For more information contact your Family Resource and/or Youth Services Center at your school or Tina Combs at Community Medical Care at 659-0229.
