The Lynchburg Lions Club and Lions Clubs International sponsored their annual Peace Poster contest again this fall.  

The Lynchburg club encourages Middle School students to develop a special poster on a theme related to promoting world peace.

This year’s theme was “Together as One,” and a total of 83 students participated in the local contest.  

The club wishes to thank Ms. Free and the other staff members for supervising the contest at the Middle School. Five winners were selected and they were given special certificates and cash prizes by the Lynchburg Lions Club and seven more were selected to receive “Honorable Mention” recognition. All the participating students were given candy.  

The top five winners this year in order from first to fifth place were Harper Barnett, Sutton Hibbs, Oliver Hall, Tole Reuss, and Aubrey Pack. All are sixth grade students at the Lynchburg-Clay Middle School. Harper’s award-winning poster was submitted to the District finals for competition at that level.  Each Lions Club is encouraged to submit an entry from their local school. There are more than 50 Lions Clubs in District 13-OH6 and the Lynchburg Club is proud to sponsor Harper in the District contest. Harper is the daughter of Jay and Tiffany Barnett of the Pricetown community.
