The Vinton Garden Club locally sponsored the 2015 Smokey Bear/Woodsy Owl Poster Contest a National Garden Clubs, Inc. youth project. The club received posters from 126 children in 2015.   The first place winners locally will advance to the State level to be judged and if they win they will go on  to Regional level then National level.
The Vinton Garden Club would like to thank Lindsey Otto the art teacher and home room teachers at Tilford and Shellsburg Elementary for encouraging the children to participate. All the children did a super job on their poster, They were all winners!
Fran Stueck, President of the Vinton Garden Club, presented palace bucks to each of the top three places in grades First through
Fifth  grade and each entry that wasn't a winner will receive a gift from the Vinton Garden Club
