The West Virginia Municipal League is sponsoring the "If I Were Mayor, I Would..." essay contest. The contest is open to all 7th grade students in West Virginia. The League wants students to learn more about municipal government and this is a great way to achieve that goal.
Three winners will be chosen from 7th grade students across West Virginia. Each will receive an award plaque and a $250 savings bond.
The deadline for entries is November 26, 2012, with essays received at the WV Municipal League office no later than 5:00 p.m. on this day. Winners will be notified in writing by mail.
To enter, complete an entry form (download below) and attach to your one page, hand written essay. The student's name, teacher's name and school name must appear at the top of the essay.
This contest is our third annual and we want every possible participant. Sign up NOW!
