Yesterday 15 students from Grand Valley traveled to Youngstown State University to take part in the 41st annual English Festival with 1300 students from Ohio and PA, and let me tell you, they answered the question, “Who is Grand Valley?” with stunning style!
In the “Not So Trivial Pursuit” category Madasen Dowling and Tehya Crawford both placed third!
In the “I Love Limericks” category, Karena Byler took second and Faith Fulner placed first!!
Abigail Chernesky stormed the stage to collect her Honorable Mention award in the “Art” contest, and then - in a command performance - she returned to the stage to collect $100 dollars, a t-shirt, two books and a pin when she took first place in the distinguished “Journalism Workshop” category!
Not to be outdone, Alyssa Spencer collected her $100 dollars, books and pins in the prestigious Candace Gay Memorial Essay Contest by placing 3rd out of more than 500 entries!
Congratulations to these students for an outstanding show of cerebral vigor!
