2022 Peace Poster Contest
A message from Lion Eleanor A. MINNES, A-711 Peace Poster Chair 2022-2023
Greetings!
I am the chairperson this year and would like to invite all clubs in the district to consider sponsoring middle school-aged students, ages 11-13 to participate.
Submissions need to be sent to me by October 31 so I can forward them to DG Ferdy by November 15. He should be notified of the club’s participation prior to this.
Hoping to make this a success:

International Peace Poster Contest
THE 2022-2023 CONTEST
Lead with Compassion
Children know how powerful compassion can be. They’re often able to express this feeling more openly than adults. This year, we invite young people to explore and visually express the peaceful future that compassionate leadership brings.
