Drawing Contest Winner Last month we asked for illustrations of our theme “Imaginary Creatures.” The illustration below by 12 year old Jared Miller of 200 N, Shipshewana was selected as our winner for the school-age division. Congratulations to him! The school- age division is open to any student up to eighth grade. There were no entries for the Open Division last month. The Open Division is for any artist of any age. The theme for this month is “Nature’s Beauty.” All entries are to be two-dimensional and on 8½” x 11” paper. Mail your entry, or drop it off at our office, by Friday, August 23. The winning entries will be published in our next issue and will have the honor for the whole month! Find The Lost Coin Contest The “Find The Lost Coin” sponsor for July was Country Road Fabrics with a coin hidden in their ad on page 47. The two winners selected were Eva Hochstetler of 375N, Shipshewana and Christina Lambright of 250W, Wolcottville. Each of them won a $25 gift certificate to Country Road Fabrics. Congratulations! To enter this month’s drawing, find the gold coin in an ad, as shown here, then take your entry to the sponsoring business. You may mail the postcard to the business, but if you present it in person, you’ll have a double chance of winning! The first prize will be drawn only from the entries that were presented in person. The second drawing will be with all entries that were received, both in person and those mailed in. Use a postcard (or index card) if at all possible. Put, “I found the gold coin in your ad!”, on it, as well as your name and address. Entries need to be turned in by Friday, August 23. The Hometown Treasure · August ‘13 · pg 49
