Fourth Annual Fire Safety Calendar and Billboard Contest Announced

RFD #1 is calling all young artists in Johnson County!

Do you like to draw? Do you have a fire safety message that you would like to tell everyone? Would you like your drawing displayed on a billboard? If so, participate in the Fourth Annual Fire Safety Billboard Contest!

October is National Fire Prevention Month. Johnson County RFD #1, in cooperation with Clear Channel Outdoor, First Security Bank, University of the Ozarks Phi Beta Lambda and Students in Free Enterprise organizations, invites students to use their artistic ability to help spread the fire prevention message. The contest is open to all Johnson County students.

The grand prize drawing will be featured on a billboard on Highway 64 during the month of October and in the Fire Safety Calendar. Twelve other winning drawings will be chosen (one from each grade) to appear in the 2007 Johnson County Fire Safety Calendar. Winners will have their photos on the calendar and will receive $25! The Grand Prize winner will get to ride on a fire truck with Sparky during the Fire Safety Awareness parade in Clarksville.
