BROOKINGS Two winning designs were selected for the Brookings City Clerks Office I Voted sticker design contest. The winning stickers were designed by second-grader Ruby Yseth and fourth-grader Elliott Ahmann.
The winners will be recognized at the March 25 Brookings City Council meeting.
The contest was a fun way to get our next generation of voters excited about our local elections and to showcase the creativity of our youth, Mayor Oepke “Ope” Niemeyer said.
More than 30 entries were submitted to the contest. A panel of judges comprised of City Council members selected the winning designs. The contest was open to all youth 18 years of age and younger who reside within the city of Brookings.
There were so many creative submissions. The judges had difficulty narrowing the winning designs, City Clerk Bonnie Foster said. We are excited to pass out the two winning stickers to voters.
The winning stickers will be handed out to voters during the April 8 Combined Municipal/School Board Election.
