For the 2011 poster contest, the MSFCA will award $750 in cash prizes to statewide winners. Local departments also often award cash and other prizes to the children in their own communities. Three categories have been created for the contests:

Grade	1st Place	2nd Place	3rd Place	Honorary (Ten)
K – 2	$75.00	$50.00	$25.00	$10.00

First prize winners in each grade level will receive $75. One of the winner’s posters will be featured on the cover of the March/April 2012 issue of the Minnesota Fire Chief.

Chiefs are encouraged to hold contests in each of the grade categories. They should then submit ONE city or school district-wide winner in each grade category to the MSFCA Editor. Chiefs may also opt to hold their own local contests.
