The Edison Metro Lions Club of New Jersey proudly sponsors its 2nd annual New Jersey Children

The contest will be divided into three groups: Group A – ages 14 to 18; Group B - ages 11 to 13;

Winners will be notified by the Lions club, and their names will be submitted to local newspapers. Winners' posters will be exhibited at the award ceremony and also printed on the Edison Metro Lions Club’s newsletter. Three winners from group B, ages 11 through 13 with eligible birth dates from November 16, 1993 through November 15, 1996, will be selected to advance to the district semifinals, where they will have a chance to progress to the multiple districts and to the international semifinals, in which 24 finalists will be awarded. Our Lions District 16D has already produced four international merit award winners in the past few years. For a sample of previous winning posters, please go to www.lionsclubs.org. The international grand prize winner will receive US $2,500, a special commemorative plaque, and a trip for the artist and two family members to the United Nations in New York City. The 23 international merit award winners will each receive US $500 and a framed certificate. In 2006, a New Jersey winner has won the merit award again (Top 24 in the world).
