“My Favorite Nebraska Vacation Spot” was theme for the annual Cheyenne County Family and Community Education (FCE) organization’s fifth grade essay contest.
First place honors went to Madison Frerichs, daughter of Angela & Joshua Frerichs; second place went to Riley Benish, son of Shad and Michelle Benish; and third place to Brody Turman son of Barbara Turman.
All three students who received awards in the Creative Writing Contest are students of Leyton Elementary School. Each essay was judged on creativity, research, logical thinking, organization, neatness, spelling, and grammar
The first-place winning entry will be entered in the State FCE Competition this summer. The mission of the National Association for Family and Community Education is to strengthen individuals, families, and communities through continuing education, leadership development, and community service. FCE conducts poster and essay contests each year for youth. For more information, contact the Nebraska Extension office in Sidney at (308) 254-4455.
