The high school Visual Arts design competition, sponsored by Barclay Tucker, was a major success. Lyndon State College visual art students were able to help high school students interested in visual arts.
“The competition helps the students in a few ways,” Tucker says. “First, it gives them an opportunity to practice and hone their skills. It also puts them in a situation where they have to work with someone they do not know who may or may not have different opinions and forces them to communicate and work with that individual.” The competition also showed the students what it’s like to work in a real world design team and what it’s like to be on a fast deadline.
“The posters were judged on use of design principles, typography, appropriate image for the audience and overall impact.” Tucker says. Team two took first place in the competition. The team consisted of Tabby Swank from Center of Technology Essex and Joey Henry from Stafford Technical Center. Team six took second place. That team consisted of Page Mayer from Stafford Technical Center and Sean Hamilton from HACTC. Team three took third place. The team consisted of Georgia Cota from Center of Technology Essex and Sondra Masse from Cold Hallow Career Center.
Page Mayer, from the Stafford Technical Center, won a $500.00 Scholarship to Lyndon State College and also received the leadership award.

Good and Bad press releases
This press release from prnewswire.com was not very good becasue the writer seemed to assume I had a lot of prior knowledge about the issue they were talking about. There was also a bit of dense language that made it more challenging to understand everything the writer was saying.
This press release was much better because the writer made me want to try the product he was talking about. He also did a good job explaining why the Hot Chocolate he was talking about was better for you than most other brands.
