NLFPD recognizes three winners
in annual poster contest
Winners came from
Spencer Crossing,
Oster-Oakview,
Nelson Ridge
Submitted by New Lenox Fire
Protection District
During the month of October
the New Lenox Fire
Protection District conducted
a Fire Safety Message
Poster Contest for all
the fifth-grade classrooms
in New Lenox.
The posters were based on
the National Fire Prevention
Association’s Fire Prevention
Week Theme for 2018
which was, “Look. Listen.
Learn. Be Aware, Fire Can
Happen Anywhere.”
All of the participants
submitted their posters by
Halloween. The posters
were judged by the NLFPD
firefighters and administrative
staff.
“We wanted a way to get
this age group involved in
fire safety, and thought this
was the perfect way to do
that,” said Marisa Schrieber,
NLFPD’s Fire and Life
Safety Educator.
There was one winner
per school. Each winner
received two movie tickets
to AMC Theater along
with a free pizza from Chicago
Dough. This year’s
winners were: Olivia
Rademacher, from Spencer
Crossing; Adyson Orasco,
from Oster-Oakview; and
Ava Tisch, from Nelson
Ridge.
“This is the fourth year
doing the contest, and we
are always amazed at the
creativity the students
put into their posters,”
Schrieber said.
