KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS POSTER CONTEST
Hello All,
The Knights of Columbus Keep Christ in Christmas poster contest is underway.
This year there are five award categories grades: K, 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6 and 7 & 8. Students complete their poster here at school.
Each poster is graded on these three categories
- Display of the words "Keep Christ In Christmas" on the poster message.
- The art work done by the student
- The overall impact theme of the posters message
Remember to put the student's first and last name and grade clearly on the BACK of the poster. Posters are due Dec 13th. Poster judging/voting will be conducted in the Parish Center after masses on Dec 14 and 15.
The Knights will award cash prizes for the top three entries voted for in each of the categories.
Poster paper, 11x17, is available at the school and PSR will be available at the Church office.
Winning posters may go forward to the Knights regional competition with completion of the parent release form.
Please contact Jim Cornman if you have any questions at 618 960 9049.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing the posters.
