Chalk Craze champ

Brookings resident Noelle Vainikka completes her design on the pavement outside the Brookings Arts Council, during Saturday’s Chalk Craze event. Vainikka won first place and a $100 prize for her drawing, which she entered in the Arts Council’s portion of Chalk Craze.

Across the street from the Arts Council, the South Dakota Children’s Museum sponsored a non-competitive family chalk drawing event at the same time. In this contest, any family who entered and completed a drawing won free ice cream cones.
