The city has been sponsoring this contest for four years in order to express our commitment to trees in our community. Every year, the local 5th graders are invited to submit their drawings based on an annual theme. The theme for 2004 is "Trees are Terrific, In Cities and Towns". The city would like to thank all the 5th graders at St. Hubert's School and Bluff Creek Elementary School for their wonderful drawings. The city would also like to thank Halla Nursery and Garden Center for their generous donation to the grand prize winner of a potted tree of their choice. Please visit the Chanhassen Library's Wilder Room over the next week or two to see all of the posters submitted. The framed winning picture will hang in city hall along with the past winners.
