An array of entries flooded the Deer Park Gazette Coloring Contest kids’ category, showcasing the vibrant imagination of Deer Park’s youth. While all submissions warmed our hearts, we’re excited to announce one winner and two honored mentions. Thank you to all of the sponsors for making this happen!
The diversity of entries made the judging process both delightful and challenging. Each submission brought its own unique charm, making it a tough decision to narrow down the winners. Our team carefully considered every piece, appreciating the effort and thought put into each creation.
After much deliberation, we are thrilled to announce the winner of the kids’ contest. Additionally, two entries have been selected for honored mentions, recognizing the exceptional effort and creativity displayed.
None of this would have been possible without our wonderful local sponsors for this annual contest; please support them.
