I know, I know, it’s only September and it is certainly not time to be thinking about the winter holidays. Unless, of course, you are one of those people that listen to Christmas music all year long and think anytime is a good time to think about winter holidays! Either way, you can get into the holiday spirit and draw a design for a 4-H holiday card for the Georgia 4-H Foundation that will be sent to 4-H supporters at the end of the year. Top prize is $50!
All entries from Gordon County will be judged at the county level, and the winner will be used for the Gordon County Extension/4-H holiday card sent to friends of Gordon County 4-H, and all entries will be submitted on to judging at the state level for a chance at the cash prize.
Holiday Card Contest Rules
1. All entries must be the student’s original drawing on an 8.5 x 5.5 inch (or 5.5 x 8.5 inch) sheet of white, unlined paper.
2. All entries should somehow include 4-H in the theme for the message or design. Also, please try to use a universal “holiday” theme.
