Peace Poster Contest
For the past twenty-four years Lions Clubs
International has sponsored a peace poster contest
which emphasizes the importance of world peace to
young people everywhere. Carol Miles was asked by
the District Governor to oversee the contest in the
lower Sussex County area.
Kezia Belgrave of the Dagsboro Boys and Girls Club
was one of eight youngsters submitting posters
demonstrating peace. "Children are the future of
peace in the world," the twelve year old said. The
winning poster was selected by a panel of judges for
its originality, artistic merit and the portrayal of the
contest theme, "Children Know Peace."
KL Jean Bertram, said she was impressed by the expression and creativity of all the students. "It is
obvious that these young people have strong ideas about what peace means to them. I'm so happy that
we were able to provide them with the opportunity to share their visions. Our club was pleased to award
the winning entry with a $25.00 gift certificate.
Kezia Belgrave & her poster are shown with Lion
Carol Miles FILC Peace Poster Chair and the Boys
& Girls Club advisor from the Selbyville area.
