Wilmington -- DART First State announced today the winners of its 12th Annual Statewide Transit Theme Poster Contest. Seven winners will receive gifts and prizes from DART First State and one of its Business Partners, Wilmington Blue Rocks.
Over 120 students from 12 schools and after-school programs statewide participated in the contest, depicting their vision of the theme this year, Do Not Text and Drive! Commute Smart, Ride DART. Students researched the bus service and its various destinations and learned of the benefits of riding transit in Delaware. Students from 6th through 12th grade were invited to participate. A First Place Winner from each grade was chosen along with an overall Grand Prize Winner.
The Grand Prize Winner this year is Tiffany Tang, a 10th Grader at Wilmington Christian in Hockessin. The artwork by Tiffany will be placed on all DART First State buses statewide and her artwork will also be featured on our website, DartFirstState.com, and in the DART newsletters.
The 1st Place Winners by grade are: Leah Somerville, 6th Grade, Sanford School; Faith Ward, 7th Grade, Central Middle School; Kasai Guthrie, 8th Grade, Layton Preparatory School; Emily Patten, 9th Grade, Wilmington Christian School; Tiffany Tang, 10th Grade, Wilmington Christian School; Nicole Lebedz, 11th Grade Sussex Central High School; and Eyren Lindsay, 12th Layton Preparatory School. All first place winners will receive a number of prizes from DART and be recognized at a future Wilmington Blue Rocks game.
