At our recent Spring District Meeting we had the annual pleasure to judge all of the great submissions for the Gary Tilton Memorial Fire Prevention Poster Contest. This is always a special treat as we get to acknowledge some fantastic little artists from the surrounding area. The students that were selected as 1st,2nd, and 3rd place in each division will receive an award locally, then thier posters will travel to the SFFMA State Convention in Waco this June. There they will compete against winning posters from other Districts to vie for the state trophies and presence on the SFFMA website. Congrats to all of our winners and good luck moving forward!
