Village of Rockton holds art contest!

 When the Village of Rockton hired its new office manager, Brenda Warren, one of the first things on her agenda was to find something special to decorate the empty walls of the offices in the Municipal Center.

As president of the Rockton School District Board of Education, Warren wondered: Why not hold an art contest among the students at Rockton Grade School and Whitman Post Elementary School?

And so it was that students in the two schools were challenged to create a picture of a current or historical place in Rockton. "Originally we were going to choose one or two winners from each building," says Warren. "But when all the entries came in, it was impossible to narrow it down that much. They did a wonderful job!"

In all, nine winners were chosen from both schools. Mayor Dale Adams and Village Clerk Judy Rossi visited the two schools last week and declared the winners during morning announcements. Students were shown their artwork - framed and ready to be hung in the Village Clerk's office in the Municipal Building on Main Street. "I love having the pictures hanging on my walls because this is how the children see our village," adds Warren. It reminds me of why we do what we do - so we can continue to make Rockton a safe and inviting place to live."

The enthusiasm over the contest was so overwhelming that Mayor Adams and Rossi decided that they would hold the contest again every year. When the students graduate from eighth grade, they will be able to retrieve their pieces of art from the Village.
