Winners announced in Nevada Day chalk art contest
The Carson City Host Lions Club is pleased to announce the winning entries in the Nevada Day Chalk Art Contest held on Oct. 31. The contest was open to all Carson City residents, households and businesses. Contestants created chalk art masterpieces on their own driveways or sidewalks based on the Nevada Day theme of “My Favorite Moment in Nevada.”
The first place winner is the Lobsinger Family whose artwork showed their favorite moment is the Christmas tree lighting at the Capitol. Second place went to Everett Hogan whose artwork reflected his favorite moment as an Aces Baseball Game. There was a tie for third place between Visiting Angels, whose chalk art showed “Caring for Our Seniors Every Day” and Kassandra Butterfield with NGBN.tv whose artwork showed that “Nevada Has Heart.” First place prize was $75; second place was $50; and third place was $25.
The Carson City community was invited to join a driving tour on Nevada Day to view the outdoor chalk art gallery. The chalk art tourists were also eligible to win prizes by submitting photos of the entries to the Lions Club social media sites. First place for posting the most Facebook posts was Michael Hansen; and second place was won by Jenny Treece. See the artwork on Facebook@CarsonCityLions.
The proceeds from the entry fees and Carson City business sponsorships will be used to benefit the Lions’ Scholarship Program.
The Club annually provides one or two scholarships to Carson High School graduating seniors. The Carson City Host Lions Club thanks all the participants and the sponsors, including Artsy-Fartsy Art Gallery, Tito’s Fine Mexican Restaurant, RCM Realty Group; Launderland Wash n Dry; Sign Pro; Visiting Angels Senior Home Care; Tile Outlet; Liaison Salon Day Spa; and Vincent and Megan LoPresti.
