The Lions International Peace Poster Contest was created to give young people the opportunity to think about world peace and express what it means to them. More than one and one half million children from approximately 60 countries have participated in this annual contest. The contest is open to children ages 11-13 in all areas where Lions clubs exist.
Local clubs sponsor the contest in local schools.
Posters advance through several levels of competition. Ultimately, one poster is selected as the grand prize winner and 23 posters are named merit award winners by an international panel of judges. Ipek Kaymak Sponsored by Fairfax Host Lions Club Congratulations to each of the winners and their sponsoring Lions Club. These winners will now be entered into the state-wide contest, with the winners of the state competition sent to the International contest, where the winner and 23 merits award winners will be announced.
