For the kids of Southmoor }

We’re adding an element of fun to this year’s fair!...

This year, we will include 2 contests! Participate only if you’d like - no pressure here! - this is all in the spirit of Valentine fun! ;)

*Contest #1: Students, have fun designing and decorating your own version of a Valentine’s Card made especially for our fair! To enter, submit your completed card to the “Valentine’s Card Contest” box in the office no later than Tuesday, January 25th. Please write your full name on the back! All cards will be proudly displayed at the fair, but 5 winning cards will be selected (this will no doubt be very difficult!!!). The 5 artists will each win a token (please attend fair to collect prize) for our “Madam Sylvie’s Amazing Art Drop Machine”! This amazing machine resembles a gigantic gumball machine - the only difference is that it delivers hand made works of art enclosed in plastic capsules in- stead of gum — how fun!

*Contest #2: Students, parents, all fair attendees... come “Dressed for the Fest”. As the postcard says, we are encouraging everyone to don their festive, Valentine attire (elementary school appropriate, please!) to cele- brate the mood of the fair. A minimum of 5 winners will be chosen from attendees. You needn’t wear out- landish garb, something beautiful, something fun, something colorful...anything could strike the fancy of the judges! “Art Drop Machine” tokens will be given to the winners! If you are tapped on the shoulder and given a token while roaming the fair, YOU ARE A WINNER!!!

Don’t miss this year’s fair on Sat., Jan. 29th 10:00—3:00
