2009 POSTER CONTEST RULES
Check this web page
regularly for any up-to-date changes
WHO MAY ENTER:
Any NY State student enrolled in a public, parochial, or private school,
regardless of grade, who is less than 21 years of age before the deadline date,
may submit an entry. Only INDIVIDUAL students may submit entries (no “partner”
or “team” entries). In order to give every school district an equal chance, only 12 posters will be accepted from any district. It is suggested that
school districts have a preliminary contest to decide which 12 posters are sent.
If the district sends more than 12 entries, it will be disqualified.
DISPLAYS:
The posters in each classification will be displayed
at the 59th AMTNYS Annual Meeting at the Adams Mark Hotel in Buffalo,
NY from November 12-14, 2009. The participants of
the 2009 AMTNYS Poster Contest work will be displayed at the Legislative
Building in Albany at the concourse level of the Empire State Plaza from January
11-15, 2010. If school districts would like the posters returned please
contact your assembly person to collect the posters by 4 PM on the last display
date, and then have them return the posters to your school. If you or your assembly
person are unable to collect your schools posters on that day, please contact
Stephanie Graseck for a later date to collect the posters.
PRIZES:
Winners in each grade classification will be decided at the conference by the
poster contest committee. If you wish to participate on the poster contest committee,
please contact Stephanie Graseck.
There will be a first prize of $75 and a second prize of $50 for each
grade classification. The prizes will be forwarded to the winners at their school.
