Design a T-shirt Contest for school-age children
By Alyce Hanson, Administrative Services Director

To celebrate the City’s 10th Year Anniversary in June 2007, the City’s 10th Year Anniversary Committee announces a Design a T-shirt Contest for students living in Sunny Isles Beach. Young artists are invited to submit entries to the Sunny Isles Beach Branch Library by April 30, 2007.

Entries will be separated by grade level and judged by a panel based on originality and best interpretation of the theme. One winner will be chosen in each of the three grade categories and the design will be reproduced on t-shirts. Winners will be announced at the Family Fun Festival, an evening event scheduled for Friday, June 15, 2007 at the Senator Gwen Margolis Park. T-shirts will be given to children in attendance.

The theme for this contest is ‘My Fave @ the Beach,’ and children are invited to create a design for a t-shirt by drawing a picture of their favorite ‘beachy’ thing in Sunny Isles Beach: fish, lifeguard, boat, the beach, etc.
