1) Oregon Blue Book essay contest
All elementary and middle school-aged children are invited to compete in the 2021–2022 Oregon Blue Book Essay Contest. This year, the contest’s theme is “100 Years of Oregon’s State Parks,” since it was just under 100 years ago that our first state park opened to the public. Essays should answer the following question: What is your favorite Oregon State Park and why? Students are also encouraged to illustrate their essays with drawings.
The biannual Oregon Blue Book is the state’s government almanac and go-to fact book.
The winners’ essays will be included in the 2021–2022 edition of the Oregon Blue Book, and the winners will be invited to the Capitol for the official Blue Book release party and celebration in early 2021. The deadline for submitting entries is October 22, 2020. For more details, please click here. Continue reading “Overlook Neighborhood Update (March 22)”
