Greater Mercer TMA sponsored a Safe Routes to School Bookmark Design Contest with the theme “I like to Walk/Bike because.” The contest was open to all third to fifth grade students in Mercer County. Janai Rajan, a third grade student from Dutch Neck Elementary School, had the winning bookmark.
“It was really difficult to select a winning entry,” said Cheryl Kastrenakes, executive director at GMTMA. “The students showed so much creativity in their designs and we loved that they took the time to really think about the reasons that it was good to choose to bike and walk.” The winning bookmark was printed and will be distributed at many Mercer County schools and libraries.
