The Rockford Lions Club proudly congratulate Arielle Schaffer, a student of North Middle School, and her teacher, Onalee Cady, for winning both their school and our Lions District competition in the 19th Annual Lions International Peace Poster Contest.

Arielle crafted a delicately configured poster in soft pastels titled "Wings of Peace' to meet the required theme of "Peace without Borders. This international competition, sponsored by Lions International, is open to students 11 - 13 years old and challenges them to express their thoughts on peace, tolerance and international understanding in their own unique, creative manner.

While the international competition was won by thirteen year old, Dipannita Banik, representing the Calcutta, India Lions Club, Arielle, her poster and her family will be feted this March at the Western Michigan Lions' Multi-District Convention.
