For 32 years, Lions Clubs have encouraged young people to think about “peace,” and illustrate their thoughts in a poster. The theme for this year is Journey of Peace, and over 600,000 posters were submitted world-wide for the Peace Poster Contest.
Fairfax Lions sponsored this years contest at Rocky Run Middle School, and recognized the winning poster by 8th grade student Paparda. Her winning peace poster is shown below.
Paparda received a cash award for her Peace Poster, and Rocky Run’s Art Teacher, Linda Ledbetter, was awarded a gift card to purchase art supplies for her students.
