The Wayne County Convention and Tourism Bureau invite area children to share their artistic vision of what Wayne County means to them in the form of a postcard design. In years past, children throughout Wayne County shared wonderful entries full of fun graphics, bright colors and positive images about Richmond and Wayne County! 

 

This contest is one way the Tourism Bureau is marking National Tourism Week, which is May 5-11. Stay tuned to our facebook page for more upcoming events and activities to celebrate! 

One winner will be selected from each of the following categories: Ages 5-8 and ages 9-12. One grand prize winner will be selected from all entries. The grand prize winner will have their design produced into real post cards that will be sold at the Old National Road Gift Shop & posted on the Wayne County Tourism Bureau’s website and will receive a Wayne County gift bag chocked full of Wayne County items. The winner’s postcard design will be seen by thousands of tourists that stop at the Welcome Center!

 

Contest begins Monday, March 25th and runs through Wednesday, April 24. A parent or guardian will need to sign an entry form for each child. Forms can be picked up at the Old National Road Welcome Center, 5701 National Road East, downloaded from our website and will be distributed through area local schools. Completed designs must be returned to the Welcome Center by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, April 24th. Winner will be announced Saturday, May 4th during the Bureau’s National Tourism Week Kick-Off Celebration during a special ceremony recognizing the contest’s 3 winners.
