YOUNG ARTISTS

ILLUSTRATION: Graphic

It's hard to believe, but it's almost time for The Beacon's

annual Back To School issue. What does back to school mean to you?

If you're a student age 5 to 18 who lives in Virginia Beach, draw us

a picture and show us. We're looking for kid art to feature in our

special edition. Drawings should be in color - crayons, markers,

colored pencils, etc. They should be at least 8 1/2 by 11 inches. On

the back, write your name, age, school, grade you'll enter in

September, address, home phone number, a parent's daytime phone

number and your parents' names. Turn your artwork into the Beacon

News Department, 4565 Virginia Beach Blvd., by 5 p.m. Aug. 11. The

winner's art will be displayed in color on the Beacon cover, and a

photograph of the young artist will run inside The Beacon.
